Barrow 11 Saints 11.

After winning the opener, Saints drew in their second of two group games in the BBC2 Floodlit Trophy.

That year’s format saw the four teams with the best points difference, rather than numbers of wins, qualify for the semi-final.

It meant Saints were knocked out despite being unbeaten whilst Widnes and Swinton, who had both lost games, went through to the last four.

Saints’ tries came from Tom van Vollenhoven, Tony Barrow and John Warlow with Len Killeen kicking a goal.
