Mal Roberts dives over for Launceston's final try against Redruth

Two late tries helped Launceston beat National League Two leaders Redruth in the Cornish derby at Polson Bridge.

Although the Cornish All Blacks led 9-8 at the halfway stage, the only try in the first period came from Redruth's Mark Bright.

The number eight dived in from a scrum on the Launceston five-metre line.

But All Blacks wing Hamish Smales and centre Mal Roberts both crossed late on to consign the Reds to only their third defeat of the season.
