It is very early days, but the 37-26 result leaves them third in National 2 East, after they also picked up another try bonus point for their efforts.

Tries from Ciaran McGann, Martinas Dromantas and James Burger, another two from John Dawe and three McGann conversions saw Raiders win a game they were largely in control of.

Raiders go on the road to play fellow unbeaten side Havant next Saturday. 

They have also waved goodbye to the ever popular number eight Hugo Culverhouse, who has moved to Tonbridge Juddians.
