Wigan Warriors brought an end to Hull KR’s six-game unbeaten Betfred Super League run with a statement 28-12 victory at Sewell Group Craven Park.

Hull KR had a 12-6 lead at the break thanks to converted efforts from Joe Burgess and Peta Hiku, Wigan hitting back through a length-of-the-field effort from Zach Eckersley.

However, in the second half it was four unanswered tries from Wigan that were the difference, Jake Wardle and Harry Smith scoring before the hammer blow of Jai Field and Abbas Miski both going over to cement the Warriors’ win.

The victory for Wigan moves them into second place in the table on 10 points, just two points behind the Robins who keep top spot despite the loss.
