| Summary:l |
Having lost at home to Leeds in the Challenge Cup the
previous Saturday, Wigan were now shocked by Saints in the league that league leaders Wigan with this derby
victory that was settled pretty much by half time. It was an ill timed
defeat also with Warrington and Widnes, below them in the table, playing
each other but Widnes winning 4-2 at least meant Wigan remained top despite
their loss. |
