:00:45. > :00:47.We will see the final round of matches before the qualifiers.

:00:48. > :01:00.It was Derby day at the DW Stadium as St Helens took on Wigan.

:01:01. > :01:03.They went into the tie level on points but with

:01:04. > :01:10.We catch up with Super Leagte's top try scorer Denny Solomona

:01:11. > :01:22.Joining me this week are Jamie Jones-Buchanan

:01:23. > :01:27.and our very own Super Leagte oracle Brian Noble.

:01:28. > :01:30.We start at the DW Stadium where Saint Helens were tryhng

:01:31. > :01:31.and then the resurgence against Wigan began

:01:32. > :01:36.against the season 's best crowd of 20,000.

:01:37. > :01:50.They are getting closer here, 20 metres

:01:51. > :01:57.Back to Turner and here is an opportunity for Fleming.

:01:58. > :02:05.The referee has given a pen`lty for the high tackle here.

:02:06. > :02:14.Tomkins is off-balance and clearly got him high.

:02:15. > :02:16.Mark Percival with a chance for the first two

:02:17. > :02:32.St Helens take an early lead by two points to zero.

:02:33. > :02:48.A sense of urgency about his tackle there.

:02:49. > :02:50.Back it comes to Williams who put the little kick

:02:51. > :03:02.That will not improve his hdalth and the try has been given.

:03:03. > :03:27.Still plenty of tackles for St Helen's as well.

:03:28. > :03:30.A no-nonsense approach from Willie Isa and the refdree has

:03:31. > :03:46.Into the teeth of those Wigan supporters.

:03:47. > :03:49.Kicks the ball to make it all square at four points apiece,

:03:50. > :04:06.St Helens find themselves, Roby is in there, Bateman there

:04:07. > :04:08.Lomax gets the pass away and Percival takes

:04:09. > :04:19.One or two questions being `sked by the Wigan players behind the line

:04:20. > :04:31.Turner again with three on the outside, he tries to go

:04:32. > :04:39.himself, it is Morgan, Knowles, wrapped up by Sarginson.

:04:40. > :04:50.Bateman smothering him in the tackle as a result.

:04:51. > :04:55.Back it comes on the sixth, Turner with a little kick back there.

:04:56. > :05:13.Hammering this, St Helen's line.

:05:14. > :05:23.Falls where he stands.

:05:24. > :05:27.Little effort by him, has he got it down?

:05:28. > :05:34.The referee wants the second opinion.

:05:35. > :05:45.He is pretty certain and he is firmly certain.

:05:46. > :05:48.The try given on the field, the video referee has to find

:05:49. > :05:51.evidence that it has not bedn touched down and I think th`t

:05:52. > :05:54.represents absolute evidencd that it has not been touched down.

:05:55. > :05:57.You never know but I do not think he will get there.

:05:58. > :06:12.Pounding it in again, Smith throws it back,

:06:13. > :06:17.it is Tomkins who goes on one of those iconic runs.

:06:18. > :06:19.There is no way through, Cowell again.

:06:20. > :06:29.And now it is for the corner but he wins with a thunderots tackle

:06:30. > :06:34.and doesn't that set off St Helen's defending so far.

:06:35. > :06:45.Wilkins trying to find a pl`y through the middle.

:06:46. > :06:48.Roby again, it is back to W`lsh who is going for the dropped goal

:06:49. > :07:05.He is getting to his feet and back it comes towards Smith.

:07:06. > :07:06.The referee says, zero tackle, Lomax.

:07:07. > :07:29.He seems to have his head in his face.

:07:30. > :07:31.He is pulling his head away by the hair.

:07:32. > :07:49.He throws the punch after being taunted.

:07:50. > :08:03.He is off for ten minutes and that will end his game.

:08:04. > :08:05.There is only about four or five minutes left to play.

:08:06. > :08:15.Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook is off as well.

:08:16. > :08:18.They will play out the last few moments here at 12 aside.

:08:19. > :08:24.Going right and St Helens looking to a hole in this Wigan defdnding.

:08:25. > :08:27.It is back to Walsh, Roby is arriving and Roby

:08:28. > :08:37.St Helen's now have to be reconsidered as very real

:08:38. > :08:55.Having won here tonight at the DW Stadium.

:08:56. > :08:58.The home of their bitterest rivals, Percival adding the two at the end.

:08:59. > :09:00.There is still forgiving and forgetting between them.

:09:01. > :09:08.And their supporters have loved this.

:09:09. > :09:14.It is a very significant win for St Helens.

:09:15. > :09:17.St Helens have been on a good run but how much better do you think

:09:18. > :09:24.It is the first time I have seen the desire and effort and those

:09:25. > :09:27.extra special efforts that we have not seen for a while.

:09:28. > :09:30.We have seen them and there have been question marks,

:09:31. > :09:32.but they deserved the plaudhts because they defended

:09:33. > :09:41.It was exciting, and the scoreline probably went a bit from Wigan

:09:42. > :09:47.because they are very much of the game and it was a proper derby.

:09:48. > :09:49.Talking about defence, you will enjoy watching that,

:09:50. > :09:52.but when you're up against that is that when you know a teal

:09:53. > :09:55.is really firing when you'rd watching a defence like that.

:09:56. > :09:57.I shut my eyes and hope for the best.

:09:58. > :10:02.I think they were like little avatars,

:10:03. > :10:09.representing what those two clubs meann, to bash each other to bits.

:10:10. > :10:11.Great game, the form for St Helens has turned around

:10:12. > :10:14.This season, they lost to Catalan, they

:10:15. > :10:26.Was this the kind of defencd and spirit that was

:10:27. > :10:31.lacking from them when they went through that dip?

:10:32. > :10:33.They have gone on this run of great form and they

:10:34. > :10:37.have got the bit between thd teeth that will set them up for the rest

:10:38. > :10:46.They have the confidence and belief and it showed.

:10:47. > :10:48.You will know better than most, when you have gone

:10:49. > :10:51.through the difficult times, if you can come out the othdr

:10:52. > :10:52.end, how much stronger are you for that?

:10:53. > :11:02.refined and that is if it does not destroy you.

:11:03. > :11:04.The best players go through the adverse times and get up

:11:05. > :11:10.It is not whether you win or lose, it is how you get up and

:11:11. > :11:14.The sense of being through that process, they

:11:15. > :11:18.have that spark and you can see it and it will put them in gre`t stead.

:11:19. > :11:22.From the point of view of Whgan not a great couple of weeks.

:11:23. > :11:26.The coach wears his heart on his sleeve and he

:11:27. > :11:32.reflected on the game in thd same manner that we are doing.

:11:33. > :11:34.They will get up, put a few more people back

:11:35. > :11:36.in and go into the Challengd Cup, a strong team,

:11:37. > :11:40.use the word loosely, robothc, they know how to do it and

:11:41. > :11:52.I think they got their money 's worth.

:11:53. > :11:55.Catalan came into their gamd at Widnes off the back of

:11:56. > :12:01.five consecutive defeats but they did win to take th`t spot.

:12:02. > :12:02.The Vikings have been re-finding their

:12:03. > :12:07.They have and to see them whn, they were trying to push

:12:08. > :12:11.for that spot and if they wdre going to get it, they needed Widnds to

:12:12. > :12:18.To see them get this pretty much says everything.

:12:19. > :12:22.They were awesome and they have form.

:12:23. > :12:27.From the point of view of C`talan how worrying.

:12:28. > :12:38.Taylor is carrying the ball, he is a big man.

:12:39. > :12:40.You can see that they are trying but sometimes

:12:41. > :12:43.effort alone is not enough, they need the breaks, they need the

:12:44. > :12:55.Frazier will want a run of games to change that.

:12:56. > :12:57.We have spoken about teams, Leeds particularly,

:12:58. > :13:00.You could be walking on eggshells and that can

:13:01. > :13:04.There is no clear and obviots reason why it is happening.

:13:05. > :13:07.As long as you stay focused, for me at this time of

:13:08. > :13:13.the year it gets hard to flhck the switch on your form.

:13:14. > :13:15.He has talked about moving forward, from season to

:13:16. > :13:17.season and they have done that, with this,

:13:18. > :13:22.Kevin Brown has committed, a star player.

:13:23. > :13:28.They are starting to develop as a group.

:13:29. > :13:32.His partnership with Mellor is a good

:13:33. > :13:37.Knowing that Kevin Brown is staying, how much work

:13:38. > :13:52.That next generation, Widnes have always been gre`t for

:13:53. > :13:58.There is no reason why they cannot go on.

:13:59. > :14:00.Warrington went into their home tie against

:14:01. > :14:03.Huddersfield undefeated in the last five matches and a win would see

:14:04. > :14:08.them leapfrog into second place in the table.

:14:09. > :14:10.The Giants are unbeaten in their last five games ag`inst

:14:11. > :14:15.Wolves and with the details is Sharon.

:14:16. > :14:18.Contrasting league positions were at stake in this game with

:14:19. > :14:20.Huddersfield keen not to finish bottom and Warrington going for

:14:21. > :14:23.second and it was so good after the ideal start, with Stefan

:14:24. > :14:25.Ratchford picking up a loosd pass to race almost the length

:14:26. > :14:30.of the pitch to get the first points of the game.

:14:31. > :14:36.Kurt Gidley missed the convdrsion but Warrington were off the mark.

:14:37. > :14:39.And they extended their lead shortly afterwards with pressure on the

:14:40. > :14:42.Huddersfield line, was a grdat passing between Ben Currie `nd Ryan

:14:43. > :14:47.Currie took the final pass and Warrington were 10-0 up.

:14:48. > :14:52.Huddersfield have had good wins recently and they

:14:53. > :14:55.would not let the game get out of reach.

:14:56. > :15:00.Ellis sent a looping pass and

:15:01. > :15:05.Danny Brough was the creator of the next try.

:15:06. > :15:11.hand to it but Aaron Murphy did not and it was all square at ten apiece.

:15:12. > :15:13.Huddersfield were on a roll, Danny Brough involved.

:15:14. > :15:29.Neither side were going to give up on this one easily and with

:15:30. > :15:31.the half-time whistle looming, Warrington got their noses `head.

:15:32. > :15:36.With Huddersfield keen to give the new

:15:37. > :15:39.coach his first win, the sedsaw nature carried on in the second

:15:40. > :15:43.A powerful Mason run ended with them crashing with

:15:44. > :15:50.Warrington have not lost since the 10th of June.

:15:51. > :15:53.They are determined to keep that going and it showed with Chris

:15:54. > :15:59.Sandow stepping over from 20 metres out.

:16:00. > :16:02.He was again involved as Wolves extended their lead up to jtggling

:16:03. > :16:06.the ball, he sent out a long ball for Ryan Atkins to find and they had

:16:07. > :16:11.Huddersfield were not prepared to lie down and

:16:12. > :16:13.accept fate, Ormesby was on the end of the move

:16:14. > :16:18.With ten minutes to go, Huddersfield edged

:16:19. > :16:21.providing the break and they ran the angle

:16:22. > :16:32.The lead had changed hands five times in this game and Warrhngton

:16:33. > :16:35.were determined to change it again and secure as high a finish as

:16:36. > :16:41.Somehow they kept the ball alive and after Aaron

:16:42. > :16:44.Murphy 's hand knocked the ball down and triggered the free play,

:16:45. > :16:50.Safely within the touchline before exchanging passes.

:16:51. > :16:53.After finding his way through, Clark arrived to score the winner.

:16:54. > :16:56.entertainment on a large scale which it was,

:16:57. > :16:58.but he was only happy with

:16:59. > :17:09.Where do you think Warrington are in terms of

:17:10. > :17:15.I think if you ask anyone they want that

:17:16. > :17:18.element of unbelievable defdnce that you may concede ten or 12 points

:17:19. > :17:21.when you're in control only one to kicking in that goes with that

:17:22. > :17:27.The last try there if it is Warrington, that

:17:28. > :17:32.ability to keep the ball alhve when everyone else has gone dead.

:17:33. > :17:34.If they play with that aspect, they have not

:17:35. > :17:37.quite put it together the w`y he would like in these games.

:17:38. > :17:38.They find themselves against St Helen

:17:39. > :17:41.doing what they did against Wigan are you confident they can latch

:17:42. > :17:46.They were league leaders up until the

:17:47. > :17:56.I was not surprised by the scoreline.

:17:57. > :17:58.Huddersfield, new coach, the impetus that gets them.

:17:59. > :18:02.I think the players themselves they recognise that.

:18:03. > :18:10.It is the time of year were you have to get it

:18:11. > :18:14.Huddersfield finished bottol of the table but have you sden

:18:15. > :18:16.improvements seen him starthng to get his imprint

:18:17. > :18:21.My perception of Huddersfield, the last two games

:18:22. > :18:31.I cannot understand why they are at the bottom of the lake,

:18:32. > :18:33.they have great players, but I will say on

:18:34. > :18:44.Warrington, in previous years people have said,

:18:45. > :18:46.They have gone in second, Tony Smith is an

:18:47. > :18:58.I think Warrington were really dangerous.

:18:59. > :19:01.Both Leeds and Hull KR were consigned to the qualifiers before

:19:02. > :19:07.Dummy half, Hull Kingston Rovers tried to

:19:08. > :19:32.Hull KR keep it alive and Marty Marsh will get

:19:33. > :19:37.It has taken us 40 minutes to get here but hold KR open the scoring.

:19:38. > :20:00.Here goes Jimmy Kleinhorst Wonderful work.

:20:01. > :20:29.Stepping end. Jamie Jones-Btchanan, straightening things up. Thd

:20:30. > :20:38.off-loading is good. Sutcliffe comes on. Cannot get it away, Leeds have

:20:39. > :20:45.real momentum. Here is Rob Burrow. Two tries and two minutes h`s given

:20:46. > :20:47.leads the lead. What a response They are finding some form `t the

:20:48. > :20:57.moment. A test at the moment of the Leeds

:20:58. > :21:09.defence because Hull Kingston Rovers... There are showing some

:21:10. > :21:19.real spirit. Kelly into the line. Too much of a handful. A tilely try,

:21:20. > :21:20.not long before half-time to bring Hull Kingston Rovers back into it

:21:21. > :21:37.again. A high testing kick. Knocked down,

:21:38. > :21:46.picked up by Kelly. Can he go all the way? He puts a little khck win.

:21:47. > :21:56.Carried on. He passes away. He scores. There has to be somd

:21:57. > :22:05.questions asked. Spectacular stuff. He says try. They are looking at the

:22:06. > :22:12.kick, looks as though there was a kick on. Nothing wrong with that and

:22:13. > :22:18.nothing wrong with his finish. On the evidence of what we havd seen it

:22:19. > :22:25.has to be a try and it is. Hull Kingston Rovers take the le`d.

:22:26. > :22:37.Passing back towards the middle Robert Beryl puts his big boots on

:22:38. > :22:54.that ball. Knocked on. Tackle. Leeds in position. Lilly. Underne`th. His

:22:55. > :23:05.first try in a Leeds Rhino shirt and Leeds are level with a kick to come.

:23:06. > :23:12.Delivering out from dummy h`lf. Hull Kingston Rovers desperately trying

:23:13. > :23:18.to do it. Picked up. He gallops away and that will be the match-winning

:23:19. > :23:25.moment. Only a couple of minutes left. They have given themsdlves and

:23:26. > :23:37.two score a lead and they are loving it at the Leeds end. They h`ve to go

:23:38. > :23:44.for something desperate. Thdy have got a try. Ciaran Dixon. Probably

:23:45. > :23:49.too little too late. Hull Khngston Rovers are going to be beatdn but

:23:50. > :23:53.they are going down fighting. He talked after the game that ht was

:23:54. > :23:58.not just dropping balls, it was the pressure of the game. You whll have

:23:59. > :24:03.to get used to like going into the qualifiers, did you feel th`t

:24:04. > :24:09.pressure? We've probably felt a bit of the pressure. No matter what you

:24:10. > :24:17.have done, you learn from that experience. I thought they played

:24:18. > :24:23.well. We played on Thursday night and it was Sunday before I was

:24:24. > :24:35.moving again. They would not be tackled. Tough game to play. Despite

:24:36. > :24:47.that, ideally have been on ` good run. How key has he been?

:24:48. > :24:52.He has only been here five lenace and he is not scared to say what he

:24:53. > :25:02.thinks. He has some great experience.

:25:03. > :25:17.What is his neck them? I have no idea where it comes from. H`ve Leeds

:25:18. > :25:24.been lacking that kind of a player? Definitely, that middle part of the

:25:25. > :25:32.field. It is all about energy and enthusiasm. The support plaxers to

:25:33. > :25:41.all the things that a good number nine should do. Having moved up the

:25:42. > :25:51.table you get four home gamds, how big a deal is that? Leeds f`ns have

:25:52. > :25:57.been brilliant. The novelty has never worn off. 52 games, great to

:25:58. > :26:04.give them that. Hull Kingston Rovers, how do you see their form? I

:26:05. > :26:14.think they were great. I enjoyed the game. I thought they could have won.

:26:15. > :26:21.Leeds have to be very tough. If they play like that at home, and they

:26:22. > :26:26.will not be too worried. Thdy know what they are dealing with having

:26:27. > :26:32.done it last year. If they play with that form and enthusiasm, they will

:26:33. > :26:36.not be worried. Hull Kingston Rovers and Leeds will meet up in the

:26:37. > :26:50.qualifiers and this is how the teams stack up.

:26:51. > :27:05.How impressed are you with badly? I am very impressed. I think @ndrew

:27:06. > :27:12.Henderson has done a good job at London. An exciting division, the

:27:13. > :27:19.Championship. Featherstone have a run of good form. All the t`lk has

:27:20. > :27:34.been about the top end. It `ll came down to the final game.

:27:35. > :27:42.For Bradford, they are full,time club and they have not made that,

:27:43. > :27:46.how big a disaster is that? It shows you need more than a full-thme

:27:47. > :27:53.environment. Sheffield have been full-time and they did not get into

:27:54. > :27:58.the next. The connectivity tnit the combinations and the fact they want

:27:59. > :28:04.to play with each other goes a long way and we see the jubilant scenes,

:28:05. > :28:17.it meant a great deal for them. Clearly disappointment in Bradford.

:28:18. > :28:25.When you look at that, it is on YouTube claim is kind of cltbs.

:28:26. > :28:31.There was a scenario where they could have finished at the same

:28:32. > :28:44.point. It shows how close it has been. I am gutted you didn't do your

:28:45. > :28:54.peaky blinders. Don't get hhm started. Move on. Move on. Can the

:28:55. > :28:58.championship sides get up? @nyone who believes they can. Leeds are

:28:59. > :29:05.favoured but if you are going to go to London, write your script. You

:29:06. > :29:10.can read your script to get over the line. The difficult thing to have is

:29:11. > :29:12.that there are for competithve, talented Super League clubs this

:29:13. > :29:19.time around. They won't be caught by surprise. Now to the West Yorkshire

:29:20. > :29:23.derby. Castleford have won the last three meetings against their

:29:24. > :29:27.archrivals. Would it advant`ge Wakefield this time?

:29:28. > :29:35.It is a battle between him and Hampshire.

:29:36. > :29:53.Wakefield going through the gears here.

:29:54. > :29:56.Reese Lynn, out on the right-hand side.

:29:57. > :30:01.It has been picked up by Greg Minikin.

:30:02. > :30:03.He has slipped a couple of tackles here.

:30:04. > :31:10.McShane, scoops up one-handdd, takes it to the right of thd rock

:31:11. > :31:20.Castleford Tigers in the le`d here as they are right

:31:21. > :31:31.Junior Moors, he has caused them problems all day.

:31:32. > :31:34.They have got this derby by the scruff of the neck rhght now.

:31:35. > :31:36.It is Gale who is back to the left-hand side.

:31:37. > :31:48.Three interchanges down and they are making the most of it.

:31:49. > :31:52.He goes on the outside and the young half-back will score his first

:31:53. > :32:08.There is a Ryan Hampshire to seel a terrific derby

:32:30. > :32:32.I was at the Bradford game and the supporters were keeping tabs

:32:33. > :32:39.Castleford will be really h`ppy to have gotten one over Wakdfield.

:32:40. > :32:42.We had to think, Wakefield have been great all year but a massivd prize

:32:43. > :32:46.Wakefield had injury worries of their own.

:32:47. > :32:49.They ran out of steam because they ran out of plaxers

:32:50. > :32:52.How big a concern is that going to be this week for

:32:53. > :32:56.You'd think the prize that it is on offer will be

:32:57. > :33:00.Whoever they pick, whichever 17 they will get something back.

:33:01. > :33:03.It depends if they have kept something in reserve for thhs game

:33:04. > :33:08.A massive prize and if the players cannot get up for that one,

:33:09. > :33:13.For both of these sides, can you see either of them troubling

:33:14. > :33:16.the top four and if you can't, what is left with them

:33:17. > :33:23.If you want to build as a club you have got to start troubling

:33:24. > :33:27.Plenty of times the bottom literally do beat the top.

:33:28. > :33:30.Wakefield have been astonishing at times this year.

:33:31. > :33:32.One of the many missing from the Tigers line-up

:33:33. > :33:34.was their flying winger, Denny Solomona, Super Leagud's top

:33:35. > :33:36.try scorer this season, he has been catching the eyd

:33:37. > :33:47.Don't go through them, just go over the top of thel.

:34:01. > :34:10.The willingness to go the extra mile to get the four points and this

:34:11. > :34:14.season we have to take as many chances as you can.

:34:15. > :34:18.I run by a motto, risk it to get the biscuit.

:34:23. > :34:31.This season, the word that comes down to is frustrating.

:34:32. > :34:34.From one to 32 we have just been frustrated with how the gamds have

:34:35. > :34:38.gone and how we have lost rdally close games as well where wd have

:34:39. > :34:44.been in front but we just couldn't quite keep a hold of it.

:34:45. > :34:47.I think it will bring the X Factor that we need,

:34:48. > :34:50.especially late in the season and to have another half-back,

:34:51. > :34:57.Luke Gale has got it in but it is hard for him to play

:34:58. > :35:19.They have been the drivers of the pack.

:35:20. > :35:22.With Luke going, it is going to be a massive loss.

:35:23. > :35:25.I think everybody in this club is going to be gutted

:35:42. > :35:48.Sometimes on the wing he will talk and he is that much of a good talker

:36:12. > :36:19.He certainly strikes one as a bit of a character.

:36:20. > :36:22.Some of those finishes though, did you have to have

:36:23. > :36:25.a bit of a screw loose to do what he is doing?

:36:26. > :36:30.He has great tries in the corner.

:36:31. > :36:37.He is a big fan favourite and he is one the young

:36:38. > :36:43.It shows how diverse it is as a sport when he is talking

:36:44. > :36:46.about running and jumping, or whatever you've got.

:36:47. > :36:49.You can bring it to Rugby Ldague and be outstanding.

:36:50. > :36:52.Hull travel to Salford lookhng to keep their grip on the top

:36:53. > :36:55.of the table and they had a right old tussle, didn't they?

:37:15. > :37:21.He got himself a score, but it was like this all night.

:37:22. > :37:25.This guy has been on fire all year, other than his 50 or 60 tackles

:37:26. > :37:31.He runs really well out of dummy half.

:37:32. > :37:34.Have the pack allowed him to show more of his attacking

:37:35. > :37:35.flair of this season, do you feel?

:37:36. > :37:38.I think it helps when you h`ve Frank Prichard in front of

:37:39. > :37:43.For me, the fulcrum of the team and the energy of the team

:37:44. > :37:45.when Gareth Ellis plays, it is a different story,

:37:46. > :37:53.They have got a lot of belidf in the team and they are a big team.

:37:57. > :38:00.Jamie, looking at the fact xou are going to have to play Salford.

:38:01. > :38:04.They seem to have dealt with the disappointment of losing

:38:12. > :38:14.They have a real team spirit going on.

:38:15. > :38:17.Had it not been for those points being taken away from them

:38:18. > :38:25.Hull will be going through `t the top of the table given

:38:26. > :38:27.what they have done over at the 23 rounds?

:38:40. > :38:43.being at the top of the league and having this expectation,

:38:44. > :38:46.I hope it just doesn't get on top of them at the back

:38:47. > :38:51.Do you see that there has bden a culture shift that they sdem

:38:52. > :38:53.to have been dealing with that emotion and expectation?

:38:54. > :38:55.Certainly when I have been with the players,

:38:56. > :38:58.they look a lot happier and a lot more confident.
