One step on road to greatness for Lewis

Lewis’ stunning opening try paved the way for Rovers to seal a domestic treble with a thrilling 24-6 win over defending champions Wigan at Old Trafford and in doing so become the first new team in 21 years - and only the fifth overall - to lift the Super League Grand Final trophy.

Fuelled by the memory of last year’s near-miss against the same club on the same stage, the homegrown 24-year-old saved one of his best displays of the season for when it mattered most, marshalling his teammates through a torrid opening 20 minutes and ultimately to a relatively comfortable win.
