Saints edged off the perch by The Robins...

With five minutes remaining The Robins bobbed over a penalty to take the game from Saints winning 19-20. Both teams made errors throughout the game, and both teams played some exciting rugby, but it was Saints slack defence that led to them conceding a penalty and losing the game. Not a dissapointing score...but a wake up call for St Helens. For full match report Click Here.

Saints keep the Wolves form the door...

The Boys are Back in Town!!!

Friday the 13th wasn't an unlucky day for Saints first game of the Super League XIV Season, they staged a superb fightback to defeat Warrington 26-14 at Knowsley Road.

Warrington had a 14-0 advantage early in the second half and it looked like Saints would struggle to come back...but they 'upped the anti' after Gilmour's 30 yard dash resulted in a successful try putting St Helens on the scoreboard. From then on it was business as usual for Super Saints with 4 tries in 21 minutes. For full match report Click Here.
