Summary:	Only a Harry Pinner penalty goal for Saints separated the sides at half time but Wigan came back to lead 5-2 after a try from Bill Melling, converted by George Fairbairn. Then Roy Mathias equalised with a try for Saints but Pinner couldn't convert to re-establish their lead. That proved costly because Fairbairn kicked a late penalty for Wigan to win the match.
