Crawley romped to a 64-0 win at Deal Wanderers after doing a bit of pre-match research and successfully combating their hosts' main strength in the pack.

Alan Maybank ran in from 20 metres following a delightfully timed off-load from outside centre Richard Billings to set things moving.

Andy Evans, Andy Miller and Ed Dowling added to the tally, all converted by Evans, for a 28-0 half-time lead.

The second half also started with Billings setting up Maybank to touch down.

Billings added two of his own, Gorm Young crossed and lock Tony Parsons enjoyed his double strike. Evans took his tally of conversions to seven.

Heathfield overcame spirited Seaford 30-15 in a game which also counted for Sussex One points.

Matt Skinner, Richard Cooley and Simon Wilson scored tries with further points coming from the boot of Will Drinkwater.

It was a somewhat disjointed performance from Heathfield, who were without a number of players unavailable due to the early morning kick-off ahead of the England game.

Seaford were also below strength, notably in the front row, but they managed to lead 15-14 at the break.

Simon Baker claimed a try as he was driven over along with Jason Pheasant. Then Andy Booth's run and inside pass sent Harry Flude to the posts, with Ben Cox converting and adding a penalty.

Hastings and Bexhill made light work of booking their place in the third round as they brushed aside Pulborough 63-7 at home.

The game was over by half-time as the home side raced into a 39-0 lead and although they took their foot off the pedal they still won comfortably with Ben Campbell, Nick Edmunds, Tom Brampton and Anthony Roach claiming two tries each.

Kit Claughton and Paul Northern also touched down, skipper Neil Redman added three conversions and Paul Sandeman kicked two conversions and a penalty.

Hastings will be expecting a much tougher test when they travel to Pulborough's sloping pitch in the league on Saturday.

Old Brightonians matched visitors Isle of Wight for tries, scoring two apiece, but three penalties sent OBs out 19-10.

Skipper Ted Littlewood and Paul Atkins scored for OBs as they coped well with a big Isle of Wight pack. Sam Howard impressed at full back.

Norfolk Arms put up a great effort before going down 20-14 at United Services Portsmouth while Burgess Hill lost 50-5 at Aylesford, despite a superb 50-yard finish from Davie Webb.

Hove were handed a walkover by scheduled visitors Ellingham and Ringwood while Uckfield withdrew from their trip to Folkestone.

Horsham were 51-5 winners at Rye in the Greene King IPA Sussex Intermediate Shield but coach Andy Smith insists they can play better. There was a touch of the Will Greenwoods about Horsham's first try as Guy Hannell charged down a kick and Kelly Russell ran the ball home.

Andy Stone (2), Dan Lethbridge (2), Russell again, Adam Harman, Dio Antilles and Rob Wright completed the tally of tries.
