Summary:l

Wigan were facing a massive game against Workington for the second time in a fortnight, this time at Central Park. All looked in good nick when they led 9-4 at half time but Workington fought back to earn a draw that was a far better result for them than it was for Wigan. It left Workington three points clear of Wigan in the drop zone with a game in hand as well.
