If Whitehaven are to survive in the Championship the key will be how they perform at home. Gaining as many points as possible at the Recreation Ground is vital and they set the benchmark with a hard-working win over Newcastle Thunder. There were some low moments in the second half but generally Haven did well and thoroughly deserved their first league win. Victory was built on an excellent first-half effort in which they scored three good tries to take an 18-6 lead into the dressing room. They had opened the scoring on 12 minutes with some very good build-up which in the end needed sloppy defending to see it through.
