ANDOVER Rugby Club secured London Two South West division safety with a game to spare following an emphatic 47-0 win away at KCS Old Boys on Saturday.

The All Blacks travelled to London for the penultimate game of the season on Saturday hovering two points above Weybridge Vandals in the drop zone.

However they avoided the prospect of a nerve-racking final day, thrashing Old Boys while relegation rivals Vandals lost 37-15 at London Cornish.

The two results mean Andover, who were only promoted to the league for this season, cannot be caught in the final game of the season and have therefore secured London Two South West division rugby for another year.
