Tynedale increased their top-four National One credentials with an 11-try Stourbridge hammering in Corbridge yesterday.

Jamie Murray, Jack Harrison and Hamish Smales all grabbed a brace of tries, while Ben Marshall, Joe Graham, Gavin Beasley (pictured), Harry Peck and Andrew Hall completed the scoring.

The 71-14 victory pushed Tynedale up to fourth in the National One table, and continued their unbeaten 2010.

Despite resting several key players Tom Borthwick's men still dispatched their powerful visitors without issue, and the manner of the win leaves Tynedale primed to push even further towards the league power brokers.

The hosts only needed 10 minutes to rack up the four-try bonus point, and never slackened their pace in the quest for a superlative win.

Strapping agriculture student Charlie Crotty will make his Tynedale debut against Stourbridge tomorrow.

The 19-stone prop has been plying his trade for the second XV this term, but gets his chance in Corbridge for tomorrow's 2.30pm kick-off.

Tynedale rugby chairman John Shotton believes Crotty is full of potential, and has backed the new man to take the step up in his stride.

John Shotton believes Tynedale can power up National League One - provided their big guns stay fighting fit.

Tynedale battered Launceston with five tries in Corbridge on Saturday, racking up their third-straight National One win in 2010 with their 38-22 victory.

Dutch winger Sep Visser crossed twice, while Jamie Murray, Dom Shaw and Phil Belgian completed the scoring list.

John Shotton reckons Tynedale must keep shooting down the National One high flyers after downing promotion hopefuls Cambridge.

Tynedale edged out much-vaunted Cambridge 20-17 on the road at the weekend, building on their Sedgley Park drubbing to double their new-year win tally at the first opportunity.

Charlie Ingall's added- time try stole the spoils from Cambridge after Joe Graham and Dominic Shaw had earlier kept the visitors in touch.

Stocksfield came back from a visit to Newcastle University with three points in their return to Northern Alliance Premier Division action this weekend.

With 15 minutes to go Stocksfield got their breakthrough when Anthony Dowson's testing cross saw the home goalkeeper and his defenders in a mix-up.

Dave Below seized on the loose ball to hammer his winner into an unguarded net.

Paceman Charlie Ingall plundered a last-gasp try to steal Tynedale a win from right under Cambridge's noses at Grantchester Road.

Ingall's dramatic last-minute score guided Tynedale home to a 20-17 National One victory, with Gavin Beasley landing the conversion to rub salt into the wound. Cambridge had barged into a two-try lead early in the second half thanks to scores from Ben Cooper, Toby Berridge and Gareth McComb.

But Tynedale came storming back thanks to a late score from Joe Graham, and then that match-stealing Ingall effort.

Phil Belgian's early penalty and a try for Dom Shaw had kept Tynedale just about in sight of their high-flying hosts, but it was that late flurry that turned the tide and secured the points.

Tynedale, meanwhile, can count on the return of former Falcons favourite James Hoyle when they travel to Cambridge.

No sooner had the full-back returned from one broken thumb than he broke the other when Tynedale lost out to Blaydon in Corbridge.

But now the ex-Sale man is back to fitness, and John Shotton said he hopes the skilful back has seen the last of his rotten luck.

Tynedale blasted the ice and snow off their five-week cobwebs with a seven-try Sedgley Park demolition in Corbridge.

In their first game since December 12, Tom Borthwick's men wasted no time getting into their groove, with wing Peter Cole's brace and tries for Gavin Beasley, Hamish Smales, Jamie Murray, Jack Harrison and Dominic Shaw completing the 41-0 rout.

Tynedale's Charlie Ingall makes a run during the first half

Sedgley were unable to breach Tynedale's robust defence, despite the home side losing first Dave Whitehead and then replacement Peter Browne to the sin-bin.

Impressive centre pairing Phil Belgian and England Counties cap Harrison proved the perfect foil for each other, and the ideal pivot for their team, while up front the Murray brothers and Johnny Williams and Joe Graham kept a high intensity in the pack.

Tynedale rate their chances of hosting Sedgeley Park at 80-20, and should it go ahead as expected Newcastle Falcon Pete Browne will be on hand in Corbridge.

Nearing full strength after injury problems, Tynedale rugby chairman John Shotton advised supporters to travel by train to Tynedale Park where possible.

He said: "The pitch should be ok, but the car park is not in the greatest shape.

Whateve rthe weather, John Shotton expects Tynedale to hit back to try-scoring form after last week's London Scottish disappointment

Some National One sides would have settled for running the second-placed promotion hopefuls close in Richmond, eventually losing 34-24, but not Tynedale.

Rugby chairman Shotton said the players and coaches to a man left London frustrated they failed to convert their chances.
