Warrington Wolves survived a second half fight back with a 28-16 success at Leigh’s Hilton Park in the Challenge Cup 4th round.
The Wolves cruised into a 16-0 lead at the break after dominating the first half with tries from John Clarke, Chris Riley and Chris Hicks.
But Leigh came out firing after the restart and Ian Watson’s try and conversion cut the gap to ten points, but the home side then wasted the chances their pressure brought about.
The Wolves erased any hope of a shock with tries from Kevin Penny and Paul Rauhihi, rendering Mike Morrison’s second try meaningless in the end as Warrington progressed, although far from convincingly, into round five.
