WORCESTER Valkyries fell 44-17 in their final Women’s Premiership fixture of the season against Aylesford Bulls at Surrey Sports Park.

The hosts stormed into a healthy first-half lead with a Hannah Breach brace followed by tries from Leanne Riley, Michi Sillari and Rachel Burford.

Zoe Bennion crashed through for a Worcester score after good work from Lydia Thompson and Samantha Bree to make it 29-5 at the break.

Valkyries’ Lark Davies opened the second period with a try, powering over from close ranger after a driving maul with Megan Goddard converting.

But scores from Montei Roi, Holly Myers and Breach’s third put the game beyond doubt before Courtney Gill added a consolation try at the death from a driving maul. 

Sillari kicked two conversions for Bulls who finished third in the table.

Fifth-placed Valkyries have one final game this season when they face Bristol in the Senior Cup Plate final at Royal Wootton Bassett on Saturday (3.15pm).
