Tim Hughes' Thurrock claimed a sixth league win of the campaign to strengthen their position in the upper-reaches of London Two North.
A trip to Norfolk to tackle Diss meant they missed out on watching England's World Cup win at their club, but an 18-15 victory tempered their disappointment.
First-half tries from forward drives - Mark Chandler and Chris Banks touched down - were followed by Earl Gorman's score in the corner after a quick pen set up a move that saw the ball pass through several pairs of hands.
Wayne Tredwell did not have any joy converting, but added a penalty. Fourth-placed T's are now eyeing a possible move into the top two.
"We've got Ealing, who are second, on Saturday and if we win we go above them -- so if Cambridge lose we could be second," said Hughes.
