The winger finished with two tries and seven goals from as many attempts, as the visitors racked up 36 points without reply in the second half.
Warrington led 14-6 at the interval with Hull struggling to come to terms with the loss of skipper Jason Smith after only three minutes with severe concussion. Hull went ahead on 13 minutes with a disputed try from Gareth Raynor, who appeared to drop the ball over the line. But referee Bob Connolly opted not to use the video replay. Warrington were soon on level terms, when Jon Clarke sent Ben Westwood over for his fifth try in six games since his move from Wakefield. Lee Briers added the conversion and then a penalty to make it 8-6 for the Wolves.
The home side went further ahead just before half-time when Westwood took Nathan Woods' pass to go over and Briers added the goal. A transformed Hull took charge in the second half with veteran Graham Mackay cutting the gap to 14-12 in the 54th minute. And Hull never looked back as Toa Kohe-Love, Crowther, Garreth Carvell and Raynor did the damage to complete the comeback victory. Warrington: Penny, Alstead, Burns, Westwood, Mathers, Briers, N Wood, Hilton, Clarke, Guisset, Fozzard, Marquet, Noone. Hull: Prescott, Raynor, Mackay, Kohe-Love, Crowther, Horne, T. Smith, Greenhill, Carvell, Jackson, Logan, Ryan, J Smith. Referee: Robert Connolly (Wigan) |
