JOY FOR POWELL ON WARRINGTON RETURN
DARYL POWELL made a winning return to Warrington as his Wakefield side underlined their credentials with a hard-working performance in which Liam Hood, Max Jowitt and Mike McMeeken were standouts.
This was the Trinity coach’s first encounter with the Wolves since his hugely disappointing year-and-a-half stint at the Halliwell Jones Stadium came to an end in 2023.
A three-try spell at the start of the second half ensured their second victory of the season, while it’s now back-to-back defeats for Powell’s successor, Sam Burgess, following a heavy loss in Las Vegas to Wigan.
Powell said: “Overall I thought we deserved to win and it was a great performance from us in a lot of areas.
