After weathering an early storm, the home side struck the first blow with a converted try to lead 7-0.

Falling behind woke up the visitors, who began to get back into the game.

After several half breaks took Wallingford up to Alchester’s 22, Phil Dawes chipped over the top for Pete McKinley to chase.

He did well to claim the bouncing ball, before popping to the on-rushing Jermaine Webster who went over for an unconverted try.

Dawes was also involved with the next score, as his penalty from 30 metres fell short.

But Alchester failed to deal with the bouncing ball and as they looked to regroup at the ensuing ruck, Duncan Kitts spotted the ball over the line and pounced on it to score.

Alchester responded with a penalty which left the game in the balance at half-time, Wallingford holding a slender 12-10 lead.

But the visitors took a grip on the game in the second half, easing further ahead when Tom Hill finished off a series of catch and drives.

Alchester, who could only add three points after the break, suffered when a player sent to the sin bin.

Wallingford made the most of their numerical advantage as Pete McKinley dived over to claim the extra point, while Dan Sadler rounded off the scoring with a fifth try.
