A length-of-the-field interception try from scrum-half Sean Kelly three minutes from time provided Ryan Brown with the opportunity to seal a thrilling topsy-turvy contest against high-flying Heworth 34-32 with a wonderful touchline conversion. Rovers, missing a handful of regulars for the National Conference League Division One clash, led 10-0 inside eight minutes thanks to tries from stand-off Brown and hooker James Tarpey but then they conceded 20 points without reply.
