Blackburn 2nd 27 Warrington 2nd 17

WARRINGTON second’s winning streak eventually came to an end with defeat to Blackburn in the quarter final of the LBS Jug.

Warrington replied to an early Blackburn score with a try from Andy Almond before the hosts reclaimed the lead.

Warrington came back once more through Almond, who converted to make the score 12-12 at half time.

The visitors lost their momentum in the second period and conceded two penalty-tries.

They came back with a solo Nathan Beasley effort with 15 minutes to go but it proved too little.
