RAY FRENCH'S TOP TRIES
|
RF: "A try from Widnes winger Stuart Wright in the 60th minute allowed the Chemics, as they were then known, to take a firm grip of this Cup final.
"Having received a pass from David Eckersley deep inside his own half, Wright powered through the Trinity defence before kicking the ball to the corner.
"Wakefield winger Steve Diamond could not catch him and, following a thrilling chase for the ball, Wright was able to touch down for a very important try.
"Mick Burke's conversion from the touchline put Widnes 7-0 in front and on their way to a deserved victory."
