DEVIZES fought back from an early deficit to take their fourth first-team scalp of the Dorset & Wilts One North season with a 10-8 win over Bradford on Avon.

The home side were caught out as Bradford kicked an early penalty, then added an unconverted try, both through fly-half Jack Harvey.

But that cajoled Devizes into action and, after a couple of near-misses, number eight Tim Alchin going close, Seth Robinson twisted though to go over from close range.

Before the break, more close-range work allowed Tom Moon to plough over for his second try of the season.

The second half was a scrappy affair, but with neither side able to add to their tally, Devizes secured the four points.
