Guardian Verdict: Rochdale Hornets 22 Warrington Wolves 24

From warm sunshine in Tenerife to freezing temperatures and driving rain in Manchester, The Wire showed they were a team for all seasonsa just! It wasn’t a classic, but this game had a feel of a Challenge Cup tie to it, with a plucky and hard-working Championship side going toe-to-toe with a Super League outfit sprinkled with a smattering of young talent to go with established first-teamers. Judging by the way the team celebrated Harvey Livett’s post-hooter conversion that won the game, you’d feel there was indeed a place in the next round or two league points at stake.
