Dewsbury Rams 24, Oldham RL 28
OLDHAM RL produced a terrific second-half comeback to beat Dewsbury Rams in the Kingstone Press Championship.
The Roughyeds trailed by 18 points at half-time at the Tetley's Stadium, but recovered brilliantly in the second period to clinch their fourth success in the league this season.
Adam Neal, Michael Ward, Kieran Gill, George Tyson and Joe Burke went in for Oldham, with Scott Leatherbarrow kicking four goals.
Such was the Roughyeds' dominance after the break, they 'nilled' Dewsbury, for whom Andy Kain, Robbie Ward, Paul Sykes and James Glover dived over. Sykes added four goals for the West Yorkshire outfit.
