Summary:l |
Wigan may still be embroiled in a relegation battle but
their recent form of four league wins on the bounce, including a victory
away at Hull Kingston Rovers, made this an attraction tie to pick for the
BBC Grandstand audience. Rovers though prevailed to send Wigan packing out
the Wembley hunt at the first fence. |
