Wigan took a break from League Action to take on the
touring Kiwi Side and for 50 minutes it looked like they would embarrass
them. A try from Shaun Edwards put Wigan ahead before Gene Ngamu's try
responded. Daryl Halligan's drop goal had New Zealand 7-6 up but Neil Cowie
scored close to half time for a 12-7 half time Wigan lead. Four minutes into
the second half Martin Hall scored to put Wigan 18-7 up and the shock
victory looked more than on. New Zealand though rallied in the last half
hour with tries from Sean Hoppe (2), Jason Mackie and Whetu Taewa completing
their comeback.
