Blackheath missed out on their first back-to-back National League One wins of the season, losing 22-6 at Blaydon.

All three of the game's tries came in the first 20 minutes and, to make matters worse, captain Matt Leek went off injured.

"The rain came and that denied Blackheath the control of the ball they needed to get back into the game, said club spokesman Graham Cox.

Westcombe Park lost 32-0 at National League Two South leaders Barking.

It was their fourth defeat of the season, leaving them eighth, two places below Canterbury, who suffered their fifth defeat of the campaign, 44-29 at home to Southend.

Gravesend recovered from their first defeat of the season by beating Maidstone 58-7 to go clear at the top of London One South.

Tonbridge Juddians' 20-13 victory at second placed Hove means they extend their lead at the top of London Two South East to three points.

Charlton Park suffered their first defeat in London Three South East, 15-7 to Medway.

Dartfordians maintained their hundred percent record at the top of Kent League One with a 23-10 victory at home to Gillingham Anchorians.
