Brett Carter also grabbed a treble, Workington’s other scores coming from Alex Szostak, Scott Akehurst and Jamie Doran with Carl Forber improving all nine tries.

Doncaster were not aided by the loss of prop Matt Groat to the sin-bin in the first half.

They did forcing three drop-outs before the break but Workington protected their line to go in 28-0 ahead and never eased off in the second period.
