Toronto Wolfpack thump undermanned Barrow Raiders to stretch win streak to 14
TORONTO — The Toronto Wolfpack continue to take no prisoners on their march toward the Super League.
The transatlantic rugby league team battered the undermanned Barrow Raiders 64-0 on Saturday, stretching its winning streak to 14 in the second-tier Betfred Championship.
The table-topping Wolfpack (16-1-1) have not lost in league play since Feb. 25 when they dropped a 47-16 decision to the London Broncos.
The Raiders (5-10-3) dressed just 14 players instead of the normal 17 — meaning they had just one on the interchange bench instead of four — due to injuries, work commitments and border issues. And that one-man bench disappeared for a good chunk of the first half when Barrow halfback Ryan Johnston went off with a dislocated shoulder during Toronto’s first possession.
