Eccles A 16 Vine 6 VINE went out of the North West Counties Challenge Cup in a game they could easily have won.
A poor first-half display by the visitors saw them trail 6-0 at the interval and they slipped further behind in the second period when Eccles added two further touchdowns, plus a goal.
Vine belatedly stirred themselves and replied with a try by Fredericks and a goal by Swift, but it was too little too late.
Mark Pickering was voted man of the match for Vine.
