Joe Bullock marks Wigan Warriors debut with two tries in comfortable victory
They established a 16-0 lead by half-time and further tries by Callum Field, Morgan Smithies and Bullocks' second tightened their grip on the match.
Wigan have met the Skolars in the annual Capital Challenge for the last few years. The game is staged at Honourable Artillery Company, in the heart of London's financial district, and former coach Shaun Wane - now with Scotland RU - was among the interested spectators.

Wigan, coached by Under-19s boss Darrell Goulding, had to wait until the 20th minute to break the deadlock through a try from ex-Barrow prop Bullock, converted by French livewire Morgan Escare.
But with forward Liam Byrne - who was promoted to the senior set-up this off-season - and utility Craig Mullen also going over, they established a 16-0 lead at the break and continued the trend during the second-half to give Lam plenty of food for thought.
As well as Escare and fellow Frenchman Romain Navarrete, centre Chris Hankinson made his first appearance since suffering a detached retina in his second game since signing from Swinton.
