- Salford 6-26 Wigan
- Warriors score five tries to move up to third in Super League
The top seven are split by just six points as we pass the midway stage in the Super League regular season, with one of those sides guaranteed to miss out – maybe more, if teams such as Leeds and Hull FC produce a late‑season run – when the dust settles in September.
So this could prove a vital afternoon for Wigan, who started the day level on points with seventh-placed Hull KR but ended it in third after this encouraging victory at another playoff rival.
