WARRINGTON Wolves returned to action with an ultimately comprehensive victory over Hull Kingston Rovers.
They recovered from a nightmare start - Ben Crooks opening the scoring inside the first minute - to score 34 unanswered points.
Tom Lineham and Sitaleki Akauola scored before the break before further efforts from Josh Charnley, Gareth Widdop and Stefan Ratchford widened the gap.
Adam Quinlan pulled a try back for Rovers before Lineham scored his second right on full time.
