If you've enjoyed your Sunday lunch then hopefully you've

:00:37.:00:39.

still got room to digest the highlights from the biggest

:00:40.:00:42.

It's the time of the year when local rivals get together

:00:43.:00:46.

# In a neighbourhood like this, you know it's hard to survive

:00:47.:01:17.

# So you better come prepared as they won't take us alive

:01:18.:01:23.

# In my beautiful neighbourhood # My neighbourhood

:01:24.:01:27.

# My beautiful neighbourhood # My beautiful neighbourhood

:01:28.:01:31.

# My beautiful neighbourhood. Hopefully, these two will be good

:01:32.:01:36.

neighbours in the studio this week. Brian Noble is alongside

:01:37.:01:39.

Robbie Hunter-Paul, both multiple Wigan and St Helens have been

:01:40.:01:41.

the best of enemies since 1895. They've met more than 300 times,

:01:42.:01:48.

and watching their latest encounter Always a real intensity to this

:01:49.:02:06.

fixture, isn't there Wigan boosted by the return of their captain.

:02:07.:02:14.

Jamahl Lolesi in temporary charge of St Helens after the sacking of

:02:15.:02:17.

Keiron Cunningham. And a huge crowd of well over 20,000. That's the

:02:18.:02:25.

kick. Marshall underneath it and safely caught. A high connection

:02:26.:02:32.

there from Kyle a more. Didn't look good at all. You look at that angle

:02:33.:02:40.

and he seems to start around the chest. It's a red card! 11 minutes

:02:41.:02:47.

played, just over, and Kyle Amor is sent off.

:02:48.:02:55.

St Helens in prime position now. Wigan's defence good. The referee

:02:56.:03:18.

has given a penalty here for the tackle of the ball. Mark Percival

:03:19.:03:27.

looking to give us the first points of the Good Friday derby game. The

:03:28.:03:35.

80 minute pence -- the 18 minute penalty gives Saints the lead.

:03:36.:03:49.

A pile-up in pursuit of the lovely grubber kick. Burges reclaims it.

:03:50.:03:59.

What does the referee think? Going to the video replay. He thinks it is

:04:00.:04:08.

a try. Burges was in there. I think he just about got there first. Wigan

:04:09.:04:16.

in the lead for the first time. A big draw for McIlorum when he came

:04:17.:04:34.

onto the field from the bench after that long absence. A penalty. They

:04:35.:04:43.

turned down one opportunity to go for two points with a penalty

:04:44.:04:47.

directly under the sticks. This time they go for goal. Lolesi in

:04:48.:04:54.

conversation with Sean Long, as Wigan take a 6-point lead.

:04:55.:05:04.

A wonderful little step by Reagan Grace. -- Regan Grace. The youngster

:05:05.:05:15.

is having a marvellous game, Regan Grace, in this, his debut. He has

:05:16.:05:21.

helped set a wonderful position for St Helens.

:05:22.:05:46.

He's got the try. St Helens are right back in this now. What a start

:05:47.:05:50.

to the second half. Just flailing hand slap at Lee

:05:51.:06:24.

Marshall. In for the try. A quick response by Wigan. They have the

:06:25.:06:26.

lead again. Escare goes for the one point here.

:06:27.:06:54.

Not a bad thing to do. A 7-point lead now.

:06:55.:07:13.

The youngster strikes! In the fabulous fashion. Regan Grace. He is

:07:14.:07:24.

having a debut to remember. The Saints fans are loving his input

:07:25.:07:32.

into this game. That's a terrific finish. His name is being taunted by

:07:33.:07:38.

the St Helens fans. What a way to start. But there's a moment he will

:07:39.:07:44.

want to forget. He might have scored a try at one end, but his mistake

:07:45.:07:51.

here has given Wigan possession back close to the Saints line.

:07:52.:08:08.

Wigan are a little loose, a little untidy. But they had numbers, and

:08:09.:08:17.

Farrell used that fact to dummy his way across. Liam Farrell and Wigan

:08:18.:08:21.

establishing authority again. Marshall for the corner,

:08:22.:08:38.

acrobatically! There has to be a second look at that, because it was

:08:39.:08:44.

too tight for the human eye. Has Liam Marshall scored his second of

:08:45.:08:49.

the game? He thinks he might have done. Oh, my word. The feet are on

:08:50.:08:58.

the ground, are they? Did the left foot go down or did the ball touched

:08:59.:09:03.

down first? So close, but I think the ball wins it. The try is given.

:09:04.:09:08.

What a remarkable finish from Liam Marshall.

:09:09.:09:24.

A little grubber by Williams. What a catch by Joe Burgess to finish.

:09:25.:09:43.

Another eye-catching moment in this thrilling derby. They've not given

:09:44.:09:52.

up. Only about eight minutes left to play, and they have to score three

:09:53.:09:57.

times. But there's been a very different attitude from St Helens

:09:58.:10:02.

tonight, certainly from the performance against Huddersfield

:10:03.:10:05.

last week. Trying to create something here, and they have done.

:10:06.:10:12.

Makinson's over. Is that too little, too late? In to the count down.

:10:13.:10:26.

Wigan looking to finish with a flourish there. But it will be

:10:27.:10:38.

Wigan's Good Friday Victor Ruiz. They stopped the rot of that recent

:10:39.:10:40.

run of defeats. An eventful week for St Helens with

:10:41.:10:52.

Keiron Cunningham going. Did you see a different team out there? Jamaal

:10:53.:10:59.

Lolesi is an attacking player and a mindset, and there's no better Super

:11:00.:11:05.

League fan to epitomise attacking than Sean Long, so having those two

:11:06.:11:10.

guys at the helm, trying to breathe life into the team, especially in a

:11:11.:11:17.

home derby. Did you see them regaining their identity? I don't

:11:18.:11:21.

think they've lost their identity, they just haven't been playing well.

:11:22.:11:29.

It gave them a little bit of freedom when it was difficult early in the

:11:30.:11:32.

game for them. They had nothing to lose. I'm not too sure... They have

:11:33.:11:40.

been trying to play that way all week, but that loosening of the

:11:41.:11:45.

strings, a fresh start to difficult circumstances, has had an effect.

:11:46.:11:50.

The red card Abe big talking point of the game. When we saw it at full

:11:51.:11:56.

speed, you both winced a bit. Is it one of those ones where when you see

:11:57.:12:00.

it at full speed, it looks bad, but in slow motion it is different? At

:12:01.:12:07.

full speed it looks bad. That camera shop there clearly sees he tries to

:12:08.:12:14.

hit the ball. Open palm. It comes over the head. Thankfully, Escare

:12:15.:12:18.

isn't injured. It is just one of those situations where the fourth

:12:19.:12:24.

official could have helped him. Would you have liked him to have

:12:25.:12:33.

seen him do that? There's been a lot of pressure on referees lately, with

:12:34.:12:38.

the westward insolent, and Ben Thaler was involved in another

:12:39.:12:44.

incident. At full speed, he could have said, I'm thinking of him, of

:12:45.:12:52.

sending him off, what do you think, and he could have come back and said

:12:53.:12:56.

something else. Nine minutes into the game, all of that atmosphere and

:12:57.:13:00.

energy, there is an argument that could be said that end sailor gets

:13:01.:13:05.

caught up in that emotion. -- Ben Thaler. I would have liked to see it

:13:06.:13:16.

go upstairs, but unless you have been in that situation... It was

:13:17.:13:23.

Liam Marshall carrying the ball, not Escare. Marshall did bounce back up,

:13:24.:13:34.

thankfully. Both him and Regan Grace on his debut were highlights. After

:13:35.:13:38.

taking a shot like that, Marshall went and scored two tries. It is the

:13:39.:13:43.

best rule change we have ever considered. Every week we have

:13:44.:13:53.

something on social media about it. He has worked, he has speed, and he

:13:54.:14:00.

has gone. He took its opportunity. Left foot, right foot... He finishes

:14:01.:14:07.

his try really well. A little error early on, on debut with those

:14:08.:14:12.

nerves. But he could not have wished for a better debut. Wigan didn't

:14:13.:14:19.

know what he could do. They were lazy. They will have to make sure

:14:20.:14:24.

that they will need to treat him like Justin Carney. Get the mindset,

:14:25.:14:30.

and take him to zero. Wigan will be pleased to get the win as they have

:14:31.:14:39.

been on a difficult run. 14 months, did you say. It was great to see

:14:40.:14:46.

McIlorum back out there. Great to see a player who has had injury and

:14:47.:14:51.

strife, and to cope with that for over 12 months... Great to see him

:14:52.:14:53.

back out. The team they're all trying to catch

:14:54.:14:58.

at the moment are Castleford Tigers. They were two points clear

:14:59.:15:01.

at the top of the table heading into Easter,

:15:02.:15:04.

and on Good Friday The commentator for this

:15:05.:15:06.

one is Stuart Pyke. Wakefield in good form,

:15:07.:15:10.

winning five of their last six. They have won their last

:15:11.:15:14.

five against Wakefield. They know how important this game

:15:15.:15:18.

is, even early on in the The former Castleford

:15:19.:15:27.

star, Joe Arundel. The golden rule, never

:15:28.:15:32.

let the ball bounce. Castleford did and

:15:33.:15:46.

they paid the price. Every time they have the ball

:15:47.:15:58.

they were dangerous. The ball goes to

:15:59.:16:01.

the right-hand side. You heard there, possible

:16:02.:16:08.

obstruction on Fifita. Roberts will get

:16:09.:16:34.

Castleford's first try. Another promising position

:16:35.:16:54.

this for the leaders. Roberts scored the first,

:16:55.:17:11.

he has made the second. Very difficult to stop

:17:12.:17:24.

on the goal line. After taking the lead,

:17:25.:17:45.

Wakefield have spent Ball inside from Gale

:17:46.:18:37.

and a second for Millington. Total control against

:18:38.:19:15.

their big rivals. They have managed to hold

:19:16.:19:19.

firm so far in this One of the best wins

:19:20.:19:49.

in their Super League They get the opening

:19:50.:20:06.

try of the second half. In the second half,

:20:07.:20:14.

that is the big surprise. They have restricted Fifita

:20:15.:20:23.

and might get another try. Wonderful athleticism and it is

:20:24.:20:54.

surely a try for Jones-Bishop. Top of the pile, eight

:20:55.:21:11.

wins out of nine. Another incredible tried to end it.

:21:12.:21:33.

They are just fantastic. You often criticise the administrators, but

:21:34.:21:40.

they were awesome. They were indeed. Castleford not at their best, but

:21:41.:21:47.

they won it 42-24 even so. You look at this picture behind us, and there

:21:48.:21:51.

was a lot of joy on their faces. There's something good going on at

:21:52.:21:56.

Castleford at this point in time. It's better to turn up and play

:21:57.:22:00.

badly and win than play well and lose. They are in that sort of form

:22:01.:22:06.

now. I will not say they played completely badly. They still know

:22:07.:22:10.

how to get over the try-line. They had a purple patch in the first half

:22:11.:22:15.

that won them the game. Is that the key? When that purple patch hits,

:22:16.:22:19.

close them down? You've got to be ready for that. They are extremely

:22:20.:22:27.

strong. It's going to take a champion team... The team that can

:22:28.:22:32.

go there and beat them down there is the team that may have the say

:22:33.:22:36.

towards the end of the season. They play an attractive brand. They know

:22:37.:22:40.

what they are doing. When they are on a roll, you may be needed to slow

:22:41.:22:46.

the game down. And playing that ground particularly, you need to

:22:47.:22:53.

hold your nerve. Andy Lynch is now in his second... His 450th

:22:54.:23:06.

appearance. As he's grown longer in the tooth, he has added more to his

:23:07.:23:11.

game. A much smarter player now, great energy, can pass the ball and

:23:12.:23:16.

take the pressure on himself. He would do all right in a number six

:23:17.:23:20.

jumper, although prefers being up front. I think he would book a bit.

:23:21.:23:26.

A frustrating afternoon for Wakefield. It is frustrating as they

:23:27.:23:33.

have been going pretty well. I can only reinforce the local derby

:23:34.:23:38.

aspect. You have to be on your game and prepared for 80 minutes of

:23:39.:23:42.

challenge from this Castleford team. They are on fire.

:23:43.:23:45.

The only team who can match Castleford's form

:23:46.:23:47.

They were at home to Leigh on Friday.

:23:48.:23:51.

Not may points on offer here, Robbie.

:23:52.:23:52.

What's it like playing in a game with so few tries?

:23:53.:23:54.

It was an intense game, as can be expected from a local derby. A very

:23:55.:24:05.

physical game. Leigh turned up. Both teams had key personnel out. Gareth

:24:06.:24:12.

Hock was missing with a one match ban for the Leigh Centurions. Both

:24:13.:24:18.

without key players, but they muscled out. It was a really

:24:19.:24:23.

physical game. The supporters turned out in massive numbers and really

:24:24.:24:27.

enjoyed themselves. Attacking football, but some big hits were

:24:28.:24:32.

going on as well. They will be feeling it come this Monday. And a

:24:33.:24:39.

big improvement for Leigh? It is getting used to that week in, week

:24:40.:24:46.

out Super League competition. In 11 league, some of the team may have

:24:47.:24:52.

had a rest. This top level means you are on the game constantly

:24:53.:24:55.

throughout the season. If you haven't got your best players out

:24:56.:25:02.

there, it becomes a hard game. The type of game that Salford might have

:25:03.:25:06.

lost last year. Is that the difference? They have a culture

:25:07.:25:10.

within the squad where they really enjoy being in each other's company.

:25:11.:25:15.

That translates onto the field. You can see them around the club itself.

:25:16.:25:21.

There is a lot of camaraderie going on. That has been translated into

:25:22.:25:28.

how they play on and the pitch. They play an attractive, advanced Rugby

:25:29.:25:29.

League. You have got over Brian at fullback

:25:30.:25:49.

also. These three guys are pivotal to making the strike happen all over

:25:50.:25:53.

the pitch. You have one when you have Justin Carney there, big

:25:54.:26:00.

strikers on the edges and muscle in the middle of the park.

:26:01.:26:04.

One thing missing from the Easter programme this

:26:05.:26:06.

Fear not though, because we've had a dip into the BBC archives

:26:07.:26:10.

and found one in the 1981 Premiership Final.

:26:11.:26:12.

Eddie Waring was behind the microphone for the final time.

:26:13.:26:22.

They have been playing for 13 minutes.

:26:23.:26:25.

He's stretching the defence. He scores in the corner. A magnificent

:26:26.:27:00.

try. It is a tremendous game and a

:27:01.:27:13.

tremendous crowd. You can see the supporters, still behind the lads. A

:27:14.:27:25.

bit of a push. The referee needs to be in there very quickly. The sixth

:27:26.:27:29.

tackle coming up. He goes on his own. Off he goes, and

:27:30.:27:53.

scores the try. Yes, yes. All the ingredients required. A good try. Is

:27:54.:27:59.

it going to be one of those finishes? Hull are really going into

:28:00.:28:12.

this... Hull Kingston Rovers take the trophy. Some brilliant Rugby

:28:13.:28:16.

League, and what a great advert for Rugby League. Well, there it is. A

:28:17.:28:30.

great moment. Isn't this wonderful! This is fantastic. Gorgeous. Well,

:28:31.:28:35.

isn't that wonderful? Bryan, are you missing the Hull

:28:36.:28:48.

derby? I never played in one, but I get what you are saying. We miss any

:28:49.:28:55.

big occasion in rugby League. You could see the crowd there.

:28:56.:28:57.

Absolutely banging. You do miss it. The modern day Hull FC

:28:58.:29:02.

were at home to Leeds on Friday, with both sides looking to bounce

:29:03.:29:05.

back from defeats in Round Eight. Just six minutes for the deadlock

:29:06.:29:11.

to be broken by the visitors. Dives over and opened

:29:12.:29:20.

the scoring for The The home side responded

:29:21.:29:25.

with a score of their own. Kelly's kick out wide

:29:26.:29:30.

collected by Michaels. Impressive leap and finish

:29:31.:29:33.

levelling the scores. Just five metres,

:29:34.:29:40.

a long ball to Ryan. He shows to the left

:29:41.:29:45.

and then goes himself. He is running, dancing,

:29:46.:29:55.

weaving and stretches out. Developing a stronghold

:29:56.:30:13.

in the game, Gareth Ellis' arrival helped

:30:14.:30:24.

the But the visitors

:30:25.:30:27.

continued to dominate. The visitors gained further ground

:30:28.:30:41.

but Hull responded in The fullback tearing

:30:42.:30:53.

through the defence to score A second penalty from Sutcliffe kept

:30:54.:30:56.

Leeds more than an arm length After a neat passing spell, a dive

:30:57.:31:04.

gave Hull hope but not for long. It is picked up and The Rhinos

:31:05.:31:14.

have scored another try. For the second week running,

:31:15.:31:28.

Hull staring another They will have a point

:31:29.:31:30.

to prove when they Leeds, though, have

:31:31.:31:34.

a boost for Widnes. Talking about a lack of confidence,

:31:35.:32:02.

going into their shell. As simple as missing a couple of players? Halton

:32:03.:32:07.

is a keeper? Yes. Pivotal to success. -- Houghton. What they are

:32:08.:32:19.

physical and they are flat without that. They are not quite ready need

:32:20.:32:26.

to be in the last two on three games. They need to pay attention to

:32:27.:32:33.

their results. Having won the Challenge Cup, we were expecting

:32:34.:32:37.

them to move forward. Is there a weight of expectation on Hull?

:32:38.:32:43.

Always when you have a successful year before. We need to mention that

:32:44.:32:53.

Leeds are in very good form. Every team will have peaks and troughs.

:32:54.:33:02.

Hull are in a trough. Leeds are on a peek. They are enjoying themselves.

:33:03.:33:13.

Moons playing well. Stand-off for Salford. And back in New Zealand.

:33:14.:33:22.

Hull will have to figure a way out of it. Houghton a key member of the

:33:23.:33:31.

group. When you have a smart hooker, half-backs will call for the ball.

:33:32.:33:37.

He knows which one to go with. The Cassini space. I think he plays as

:33:38.:33:47.

an 80 minute player. Key to have McGuire alongside him? The criticism

:33:48.:33:54.

last year, they did not have a settled half-backs combination, not

:33:55.:34:00.

fluent. The two people look on their game. Danny playing regularly is

:34:01.:34:04.

massively important. Now Huddersfield against Catalan

:34:05.:34:07.

doesn't quite fit into the theme of derby matches,

:34:08.:34:09.

but they were quite close Just a point between them,

:34:10.:34:11.

how are Huddersfield playing They snatched defeat from the jaws

:34:12.:34:24.

of victory. They were comfortable in the first half. Murphy, the big boy,

:34:25.:34:36.

he scores. This Catalan team, they are not going to go away. They had

:34:37.:34:46.

their fullback back. A game of tennis in the first half. A lack of

:34:47.:34:50.

ball control from the home team. Look at his enthusiasm. He is just

:34:51.:35:08.

about that try. -- pleased about that try. Every time you thought the

:35:09.:35:15.

Catalans had gone away, they got two and three scores. Mentioning

:35:16.:35:26.

Castleford going in to try spurts. They did it, too. The game was won

:35:27.:35:31.

in the end in the second half. The finishing. Needs to have a word with

:35:32.:35:43.

the referee. I'm not sure it is the first time for him. He is a

:35:44.:35:52.

confidence, competitive man. When things are not going your way, you

:35:53.:35:59.

do display that. He has been upset by something he has said, the

:36:00.:36:09.

referee. When it comes to Danny, it is a unique situation. It is like

:36:10.:36:17.

losing two men. He is pivotal. He marshals them. He is a goal kicker.

:36:18.:36:26.

If he goes off the field for ten minutes, it is like losing two men.

:36:27.:36:37.

And this man can play multiple positions. He can even play

:36:38.:36:43.

background. Good ball-handling skills for a guy of his size. He can

:36:44.:36:53.

see is based. -- see space. But who can he work with to create a good

:36:54.:36:55.

partnership? Our final match today is the meeting

:36:56.:36:57.

of Widnes and Warrington. They were the top two

:36:58.:37:00.

in Super League on Good Friday last year, but this time around

:37:01.:37:02.
