Rotherham Titans dig in to clinch late, late victory

Trailing by six points with 94 minutes showing on the clock, Titans had one last push that brought a try for Zac Poole before centre Ellis Abrahams showed nerves of steel to land the conversion for a 21-20 victory.

The teams ended an error-strewn first half tied at 7-7, with skipper Seb Nagle-Taylor’s try cancelled out by a touchdown for Moseley hooker Ryan Roach.

He crossed the whitewash twice more in the second half to complete a hat-trick, all from lineout catch and drives, while scrum-half Connor Dever went over for Rotherham who were well short of their best on the day .

A conversion and a penalty from Jamie Williams helped give lowly Moseley the advantage going into stoppage time before the nail-biting finish.

It was all too close for comfort but nevertheless a sixth win in seven for the Titans in National One and testament to their never-say-die spirit.
