Barrow Raiders recorded a fourth successive victory in the Betfred Championship, running out convincing 46-12 winners at Rochdale Hornets.
Despite falling behind early on, the Raiders responded well and were full value for a 28-12 half-time lead which came courtesy of tries from Luke Broadbent, Matt Costello, Ryan Johnston, Joe Bullock and Ryan King.
The second half saw the Hornets kept scoreless as Paul Crarey’s side ran in three more tries.
During a profitable 11-minute spell either side of the hour mark, Ellis Robson and Alex Bishop added their names to the scoresheet, either side of King’s second of the afternoon.
The Raiders are back in action at home on Sunday, welcoming Halifax Panthers to the Speed Competitions Stadium in a rearranged Championship fixture between the two clubs.
