TAUNTON Titans took revenge in emphatic style yesterday as they won 51-17 at Dorking in National League 2 (S).

Earlier in the season Dorking produced a well-drilled performance at Hyde Park to end Titans’ 18 month unbeaten home record.

But Titans were in no mood for a repeat, running in a total of seven tries.

Taunton, playing down the slope and against the wind in the first half, started the game with a bang as outside centre Nick Mason went over for an early score.

Full-back Gary Kingdom added a penalty to make the score 8-0 after just 12 minutes.

Dorking got to within a point when their top try scorer, Will Crow, sneaked down the blind side for a try converted by Cameron Cowell.

But a detemined Titans outfit replied with two converted tries before half time.

The first was the result of a Titans ever-dangerous driving maul with prop George Cooper the benefitting from the pack’s hard work.

The second was a penalty try after the Titans pack shoved the home side off their own ball in a scrum and marched towards the line only for Dorking to stop a certain try illegally.

With Kingdom adding the extras the half time score was 22-7.

Then with just minutes of the second half gone inside centre Freddie Fraser got his name on the scoresheet.

Kingdom once again converted the try and also added a penalty before Dorking claimed a second try, through Ryan Jeffery, to make the score 32-12 after 62 minutes.

Next to score for Titans was winger Jack Faulkner who showed great footwork and a handoff to round the defence.

This was followed by another try by Jeffery for Dorking..

With 15 minutes to go, and all of the Titans replacements now on the field to energise the team and ensure that Dorking didn’t claim a fourth try and a bonus point, the visitors went on to score two more converted tries.

One came from the impressive Sam Skinner and the other by Kingdom who ended the game with 19 points.

As his last conversion sailed through the posts Titans could be satisfield they had completed the job they had set out to do.

Titans: Kingdom, Claydon, Mason (Popham 60), Fraser, Faulkner, East, Webb, Harvey, J Fleming (Ogden 70), Lee (Capt), Turner (Skinner 40), G Fleming, Cooper (Manton 32 - 55), Gatford (Spurdle 65), Woolmore.
