Jersey were defeated in one league game this season

Jersey Rugby Club face a home play-off from London Two South after beating Wimbledon 27-10 on Saturday.

The island club got off to a good start when Ryan Morgan put them ahead after 15 minutes and Keiaho Bloomfield added a push-over try 17 minutes later.

Wimbledon cut through Jersey's three-quarter line just before half time to score a converted try and added a penalty to level the score at 10-10.

After the break Jersey pressed harder and three more tries gave them the win.

We've played better in three inches of mud Jersey captain Kern Yates

Haywards Heath secured automatic promotion by topping the London Two South table.

Jersey captain Kern Yates told BBC Radio Jersey: "We wanted to go a whole league season without being beaten at home and we've done that."

But he was disappointed with his side's performance against the already relegated Wimbledon.

"Bottom-of-the-league side playing a top-of-the-league side at home on a sunny day, we should have produced really.

"We've played better in three inches of mud to be honest."

Talite Vaioleti opened the second-half scoring and put the islanders back in the lead with a push-over try.

Sam Tuia thrilled the 500-strong crowd when he ran half the length of the field, swerved to leave prospective tacklers in his wake, and secured the game at 22-10.

James Cooper went over for Jersey's fifth try.

Jonathan Swift nailed just one of his five conversions.
