LIVERPOOL ST HELENS recorded their sixth successive North One West victory comfortably running in three tries in each half.
Although far from fluent they outgunned their East Lancashire rivals, particularly in the backs.
The first half tries came from centre Greg Smith, his first of four on the day, collecting a neat pass from Simon Worsley after six minutes; winger Ian Stanley, finishing after combining with Matt Cunliffe and Danny Higham and hooker Phil Battersby plunging over from short range after good work from full-back John Pape, five minutes before half-time.
Centre Tom Sellick pulled a try back for the visitors, converted by Paul Bleasdale, as they rallied strongly after the break before the rest of the game belonged to Greg Smith. The 20-year-old centre scored all three tries, converted two and landed a penalty to add to his first half try and three conversions to register a remarkable personal tally of 33 points.
