Warriors hold off fast finishing Tigers

Wigan Warriors piled on some points either side of half-time to repel a gallant late fightback from the Castleford Tigers.

It was the visitors who struck first through the boot of Gareth O'Brien before the Wigan side responded with a four-pointer to Zac Hardaker to make it 4-2.

From there, Wigan Warriors extended their lead with a double to winger Liam Marshall which gave them a healthy buffer headed into the break. Castleford did pull one back through Greg Eden for a 10-6 score line.

The Warriors were the smarter of the teams after the break with Ethan Havard and former NRL star Jai Field scoring alongside three Hardaker goals extended their lead to 28-6.

Castleford Tigers gave the Warriors a fright in the finishing stages with tries to prop Greg Griffin, five-eighth Jake Trueman and centre Jake Mamo brought it back to 28-22.

Two late penalty goals from the assured Hardaker ensured the Warriors took home the two points. The winger had a solid night with the boot kicking six out of seven goals.
