Worthing strengthened their bid for the play-offs as they opened up a four-point cushion in second place in London One.

The Raiders fought back from 6-0 down early in the first half to win 32-11 at Civil Service thanks to a hat-trick of tries from Peter Altona together with touchdowns by Todd Murphy and Ben Coulson.

With Barnes going down 24-5 at leaders Richmond it means Worthing are now four points clear of their nearest rivals for the play-off spot with a far healthier points difference.
