Wigan were playing Oldham for the second Saturday in a row and took the lead 2-0 with a fourth minute penalty goal from Fred Griffiths.

Then on 63 minutes, Griffiths kicked a goal to re-establish a Wigan lead at 4-2 after Smethurst had been caught offside. The match was sealed by Wigan with a 72nd Minute try from Geoff Bootle. |
