Worrincy went over twice either side of Craig Calvert’s try but the Whitehaven winger added his second to level the scores before Elliot Miller edged Haven 12-8 ahead just before half-time.

Scott McAvoy and Miller crossed to put the visitors in control but after Liam Carberry had cancelled out Michael Knowles’s try, Worrincy completed his hat-trick and Mark Mexico scored four minutes from time.
