Yet with Arthur Mourgue missing three conversion attempts, Warrington – who were hampered by the absence of several stars who could return for the Wembley rematch in a fortnight – stayed in the contest with Daniel Russell and Josh Thewlis tries.

Full-back Jack Welsby helped himself to a hat-trick as Saints built on last week’s thumping win over Catalans Dragons and made it yet another night to forget for Luke Robinson’s beleaguered Giants.

Three weeks ago Wellens looked on the brink after his side’s acrimonious Magic Weekend defeat by Leeds, but his side found favour in the fixture list and proceeded to repair their wounds against opponents who failed to muster much of a fight.

With the return of Tui Lolohea, Robinson was afforded the rare luxury of naming a first-choice spine, but it did not detract from his side’s glaring deficiencies which were immediately exposed by Saints’ rising teenage star George Whitby.

Whitby, who scored a hat-trick in the thumping win over Catalans, was the architect of a commanding start by the visitors.
