Wigan Warriors Dominate Challenge Cup Final Rugby league paid its respect to Rob Burrow and his family and friends by delaying the kick-off of today's Challenge Cup Final to seven minutes past three in recognition of the ‘pocket rockets' Leeds shirt number after his passing last Sunday which caused immense sadness throughout the community.
Wigan Warriors went into the game as favourites to beat a Warrington Wolves side who some fancied as strong underdogs thanks to the coaching of Sam Burgess who has teased some great performances out of his side in his first year in charge.
Warrington had a six-point start on the handicap coupon but Wigan coach Rob Peet had spent the week telling his side not to underestimate their opposition although they would have needed little instruction after recording just a single point win in the Cup Final rehearsal last weekend.
