By George! A Late Show From Mills Is Just In Time

Having being behind for the whole game, Rotherham looked like they were going to return north with the points in the bag but Plymouth hit back and claimed victory with a try from flanker George Mills deep in stoppage time.

A clearly pleased Plymouth head coach Ben Gulliver said: “After two narrow defeats it was a relief to get the win.

“I thought Rotherham had won the game but great credit to the boys for coming back after going behind.

“Credit must go to the whole squad who have worked very hard this week and defensively we looked a lot better.

“Virtually every team in this league is capable of beating each other, so to get nine points from our opening three games is a good return.”
