At Anniesland a blistering performance from Whitecraigs saw them get back to winning ways.
Craigs were fast out of the blocks and dominated the opening 20 minutes with strong forward play and slick handling in the backs.
Two converted tries and two penalties ensured the visitors were ahead but Accies rallied late in the first half, and continued picked up where they had left off after the break. A penalty for the home side cut the lead to 20-11, but Craigs eventually started to show their title credentials.
Whitecraigs moved up a gear and after camping in the Accies danger zone for almost 10 minutes the ball finally came out to the backs and Graeme Fisher burst through a gap to score.
And the icing on the cake came 10 minutes from the end when Accies fumbled the ball midfield and Moffat pounced.
The 32-11 victory sets Whitecraigs up for next week's tough trip to the borders to take on Hawick YM in a top-of-the-table clash. Elsewhere, Cartha-Queen's Park went down 20-26 at Garnock in Premiership 3. They host Livingston on Saturday at 3pm.
