		Wigan Warriors escaped from their shocking Super League slump to advance to the fifth round of the Powergen Challenge Cup.
		Yet the Warriors were handed a lifeline just before the second half in the form of Chris Ashton, taking the ball from Fletcher and pouncing behind the sticks before Wayne Godwin did the goal duties and provided the Cherry and White army with a glimpse of things to come.
		From then on in, Wigan were relentless in their pursuit of a win as a kick from Moran muddled Wakefield, allowing David Vaealiki to claim Wigan’s fifth try of the game and Danny Tickle to once again come up with the goods.

		WIGAN Warriors are a club in crisis with the world's most famous rugby league team reeling on the ropes and fighting for Super League survival.
		Wigan had to go for him when he left Saints - it was some coup but the time to judge him is when he brings in the players he feels are worthy of pulling on a Wigan shirt.

		Wigan thought they had equalised on 8 minutes when Newton dived over after the ball had gone loose out of the tackle, but the video referee adjudged that Farrell had knocked-on.
		Wigan started the second half with intent, moving the ball wide and keeping the ball alive well, but it was Saints who created the try-scoring opportunities in the opening ten minutes.
		It appeared that Saints had wasted a good position on Wigan's line as a pass bobbled loose and Brown collected it, but he then threw out a speculative offload which went to Sculthorpe, but unfortunately for Wigan it was Paul, not Danny.

		Wigan had opened the scoring through new signing Bryan Fletcher, making his debut after recovering from bowel surgery, but despite seeing little of the ball in the Wigan half, Warrington hit back through Richie Barnett and Chris Bridge to lead at the halfway mark.
		Wigan introduced Fletcher for his debut on the 20-minute mark, and he took just three minutes to register his first try for the club, taking a beautiful short ball from Danny Orr to cross the line.
		The Warriors were finding it increasingly difficult to break out of their own half, though, and quick hands by Briers and Gleeson put Fa’afili in for his side’s third try of the night, which Briers converted to make it 23-6.
