LINO LEADS THE WAY AS TRINITY THRASH WIRE

WAKEFIELD TRINITY 40
WARRINGTON WOLVES 10
WAKEFIELD continued their recent hoodoo over Warrington with a dominant second-half display to make it seven wins in their last eight games against the Wolves.
Although Daryl Powell’s former club threatened a comeback from 18-0down with two quickfire tries shortly before half time, they never really looked likely to recover in the second half from the moment Arron Lindop dropped the kick-off.
The opening ten minutes of the match belonged to Caius Faatili. After his early faux pas in making a rushed high kick without having realised the referee had waved for a fresh set of six 20 metres out from the Wolves line following a hand-in on a kick, he took on Liam Hood’s pass from close range to crash over for the game’s opening try on four minutes.
