CELTIC CRUSADERS 8, WARRINGTON 22
Mathers at the double as Wolves sink Crus
RICHIE MATHERS' try-scoring double proved Warrington can cope without Lee Briers.
The Wolves were without star half-back Briers through a hamstring injury. But they piled on to the misery of the Super League newcomers with a four-try blitz.
A brace of second-half tries from Mathers was backed up by earlier strikes by Jon Clarke and Ben Harrison.
