The Wolves looked like finally breaking their Saints hoodoo as Penny completed a magical treble and Jon Clarke followed him over in early in the second half at the Halliwell Jones Stadium. Yet Saints came from behind to snatch a memorable victory with two late tries.

Warrington had gone into the game looking for only their second win over Saints in 32 meetings in the summer era, and on the back of a poor run of form.

Meanwhile, injury-hit Leeds survived a second-half fightback from Hull KR to gain a very credible 36-22 win at Craven Park and extend their advantage at the top of the table to six points.

Brian McClennan's side overcame a poor first-half showing to lead 24-10 at the hour mark, but saw play-off chasing Rovers come back to within two points of them before veteran Keith Senior put the game to bed with 13 minutes to go.

It was of huge credit to Leeds that they dismissed the absence of five international players to gain a 10th win of the season against a Robins side who remain on the fringes of the top six.
