Wakefield 4 V 0 Widnes
Tries: Howarth (7)

Wakefield 4 V 6

Converted Try: Sa

Simple unforced errors stopping Wakefield from building any pressure, the first of the teams to settle down will gain the ascendancy.

Stupid pointless penalty gives Widnes an easy exit from their own 20 and Widnes take full advantage with a line break followed by a Hanbury try and a Hanbury conversion.

Johnstone knocks on from the kick and Setemata Sa picks up for an easy touchdown, Hanbury converts

Wakefield 4 V 18 Widnes

Tries:
Howarth

Tries:
Sa 2, Hanbury
Conversions: Hanbury 3

Oh dear this could be embarrassing.

This first half has been littered with handling errors and a few soft penalties, we won't compete with anyone if we continue to turn the ball over so cheaply.

Half time just come at the right time....

Try to Reece Lyne after good build up play by Sio and Crowther
Finn converts
Wakefield 10 V 18 Widnes

Another unforced error by Wakefield gifting field position to Widnes
Lloyd White scores a soft try and Hanbury converts

Wakefield 10 V 24 Widnes

BJB very disappointing again.

Sio scores under the posts Finn converts

Wakefield 16 V 24 Widnes

Could be on 0 points by the time the next home game comes around (5th round).

Gifted the game to Widnes. Positives and negatives to take out of the game. All in all much better than last year.
