Super League champions Wigan underlined their credentials as serious title contenders again this season with an impressive win over Warrington in Las Vegas.
A repeat of last season’s Challenge Cup final provided plenty of points in the first Super League game to be played in the United States, although Wigan always looked in charge after taking the lead.
Tyler Dupree opened the scoring for Warriors after Warrington had an early Toby King ruled out.
Abbas Miski scored a stunning second, before Bevan French and Harry Smith made it 24-0 at half-time.
Jai Field, Jake Wardle and Luke Thompson then put the result beyond doubt, before Arron Lindop, James Harrison and Matt Dufty replied for Warrington.
Liam Marshall added a late eighth try for Wigan before Matty Ashton went the length of the field for the Wire to complete the scoring.
More to follow.
