WARRINGTON Wolves' Wembley dream is still on after a riproaring win in Saturday night's Carnegie Challenge Cup quarter final at Craven Park.

With the scores level at 6-6 at half time, it was all going to come down to which team wanted success the most.

And Wolves proved it was them when they dominated the 'golden point' finale after the match ended 24-24 after 80 minutes.

Cometh the hour, cometh the man.

Wolves' record drop-goal scorer Lee Briers, the man who sunk Leeds Rhinos with a last minute drop goal in the 2006 play offs at Headingley, is the hero again.

After a galloping charge from Garreth Carvell, Briers hit the spot with a stunning drop-goal effort from 30 metres as Rovers defenders hounded in on him.

Wolves had opened the second half superbly, even if they went in front for the first time on the back of a forward pass.

Chris Bridge got away from Kris Welham's shackles for the first time and sent Matt King flying down the wing.

As the cover came across, he fired an inside pass that was yards forward for Jon Clarke to gallop home. Chris Bridge's conversion made it 12-6.

The lead did not last long, though, with Rovers capitalising on a penalty for interference at a play-the-ball.

Michael Dobson provided a perfect pass for Clint Newton to scoot past the attentions of Louis Anderson in the 49th minute and with Dobson converting the scores were level again.

Then disaster struck two minutes later on the back of Carvell offending at a play-the-ball.

Richie Mathers made a hash of dealing with the bounce of the ball from Paul Cooke's tame kick and Ben Galea pounced. Dobson's conversion made it 18-12.

The game started to get away from Wolves when Jake Webster touched down in the 63rd minute after Scott Murrell had ripped Wolves open down the middle. No conversion meant Wolves were 10 points adrift and needed the next score.

They got it through King, who got on the end of a chip kick from Briers and with Bridge adding a wonderful touchline conversion the lead was cut to four points.

A monstrous break from Adrian Morley then paved the way for Briers to ship out to Bridge for a wonderful equalising try in the 71st minute and Bridge kept his nerve to slot the conversion and put Wolves 24-22 ahead.

But a penalty from 10 yards from almost in front of the posts after Wolves were ruled offside allowed Dobson to convert and level the scores again.

Briers failed with a late drop goal attempt and Wolves were fuming that the clock was not stopped after the scrum had been formed when they could have had one last attack before the final hooter.

As it was the hooter sounded and Wolves were in a 'golden point' situation for the first time in their history.

The pressure was really on as the next team to score any points in 10 extra minutes would be through to the semi finals.

Briers failed to hit the mark with three drop goal attempts, two from distance, while a Cook effort hardly got off the ground, before the winning strike put Wolves into the last four for the first time since 2004.

Warrington had to fight back after conceding early on in the game in front of a vociferous and intimidating Craven Park crowd.

Wolves knew well from the 2006 quarter final that the home Robins fans are worth extra points to their team and the last thing Tony Smith's men needed was to give the crowd any encouragement.

But they did by conceding a try in the third minute after Simon Grix lost possession on his own 40m line.

Rovers spun the ball left where Cooke's long pass found Peter Fox unmarked.

He had support on his inside from Welham to cross behind the sticks to give Dobson the simplest of conversions.

Wolves built some pressure on the back of Stanley Gene giving a penalty away for a high shot that almost took Grix's head off.

But two repeat sets from kicks and a penalty for offside put Wolves into a position to equalise, with intricate passing between Clarke and Michael Monaghan opening up space for Vinnie Anderson to go over in the 16th minute. Bridge converted.

Wolves lost the services of both Ben Westwood and Monaghan with injuries in the first half but both showed their mental strength as they returned after the break.
