Rhys Hanbury went over in the corner to put the a kick behind although this one went unconverted.

Three minutes later Jon Clarke scored the third Widnes try and the conversion by Ah Van put his side four up.

Cameron Phelps then added another try for Widnes that was converted before Richard Owen pulled one back for the hosts.
