Northwich came back strongly and through good passing managed to score in the corner and they continued to struggle for possession to increase their score.
In the final minutes of the half a break by Mark Williams enabled Rhys James to score his second try and to give Wirral a try bonus point, the try was converted to give Wirral a comprehensive victory pending their next game in 14 days time against Kendal with a 2.15pm kick off.
