Summary:l
This was turning into a fantastic Christmas for Wigan.
Having beaten league leading Leigh on Christmas Day, then now beat second
placed Leeds at Headingley. Wigan's "best performance since the war"
suggested one newspaper. Tries from Lou Brown and Wilf Hodder helped Wigan
build a 10-2 lead by half time. That laid the platform for an excellent
Wigan win that sent Wigan top of the table after Leigh lost 3-0 at home to
St Helens.
