Dewsbury Rams 18
Featherstone Rovers 36
FEATHERSTONE came from 14-6 down to topple relegated Dewsbury in an error-ridden and stop-start affair.
Club captain Stuart Dickens and Anthony Thackeray scored two tries apiece for Rovers, with Dickens also adding five goals for an 18-point haul.
Half-back Thackeray scored well-taken solo tries either side of the break to give lack-lustre Rovers a valuable lift after they fell eight points adrift.
A brawl saw Rovers prop Tony Tonks sin-binned for punching and home substitute Jimmy Walker yellow-carded 12 minutes from time.
Featherstone finished the stronger with a try from hooker Jack Lee, allied to two more Dickens goals.
