| Widnes Tigers 16 v 18 Pilks Recs A | | 03-Oct-09 |
Pilks stole victory with a last minute try in this tough away fixture.
Pilks forwards were on top for most of the first half and tries from second row forward Col Rogers and returning hooker Andy Webster gave them a 0-10 half time lead.
Tigers pulled a try back after half time but a further try from strong running prop Andy Burns put Pilks back in control.
Tigers fought back and after some poor defending from Pilks took the lead with 3 minutes left in the game.
But in the dying seconds a crossfield kick from Ste Rawsthorne found Chris Smith, who handed on to winger Kelvin Duffy to sneak in at the corner.
Best for Pilks were Burns, Luke Smith and tryscoring hero Duffy.
