The long-serving stand-off’s effort was just one of 12 Wolves tries as Tony Smith’s men produced a devastating display in the third Magic Weekend match at Murrayfield. Richie Myler touched down twice against his former club while Chris Hicks also grabbed a double and Chris Riley went joint top of the leading scorers’ chart with his 15th of the campaign. Ben Westwood kicked six goals from eight attempts as the ruthless Wolves gave the lacklustre Reds little respite. Warrington’s performance was a clear statement of their title ambitions and turned up the pressure on Wigan Warriors, who face a tough match against Huddersfield Giants tomorrow. Warrington went into the game knowing victory by 25 clear points would take them above the Warriors to the top of the table. And their determination to do so was soon evident as they went ahead within two minutes, Michael Monaghan shooting out of acting half, throwing a dummy and scampering over. It was just the start Salford, low on confidence after a last week’s demoralising loss to Castleford and claims of unrest, did not want. But it was a sign of things to come and just five minutes later Hicks jumped highest to claim a Briers kick and score his first. The signs were ominous for the Reds but they briefly managed to stem the tide by piecing together a couple of good moves. They pulled a try back after 11 minutes after Ashley Gibson and Stefan Ratchford carried the ball upfield. Play moved across the pitch and back again before Daniel Holdsworth set up Ratchford with a superb long pass out wide. Holdsworth landed the difficult conversion but Salford were soon backtracking once as the Wolves upped the tempo with three tries in the space of eight minutes. Briers was again involved in a sweet passing move that ended with Hicks grabbing his second, and 10th of the season, out wide. Myler then put Ryan Atkins in with a delicate kick before the centre turned provider to break through several tackles and put Rhys Williams in to mark his full debut with a maiden try. Yet Salford showed flashes of quality and claimed a second converted try courtesy of a fine individual effort from Matty Smith. Normal service was soon resumed, however, as Riley dived over on the stroke of half-time. The procession continued after the break as Briers kicked through and Vinnie Anderson pounced. Myler then made amends for an earlier fumble with the line in sight as he ran under the posts from a Chris Bridge offload. With Westwood off the field, Briers added the extras. Bridge, who also kicked three goals, got in on the act just after the hour and Myler broke through for his second moments later. David Solomona wrapped up a satisfactory day for Warrington late on but Salford at least had the final word with a last-minute Ratchford consolation. www.superleague.co.uk |
