Wimborne RFC come from behind to beat Wootton Bassett
Wimborne RFC continued their impressive form with a 31-12 win over Wootton Bassett.
Despite trailing 5-0 at half time after enduring a difficult first forty minutes - the Dorset side turned up the pressure after the break to cruise to victory.
The hosts dominated the first half and deservedly took the lead when a smart passing move was finished off by Andrew Phoenix.
Several handling errors prevented Wimborne getting off the mark during the first period. Marcus Atkins came close as he stole possession - but was tackled just short of the try line.
