The ratings of the St Helens players as a reliable rearguard stand up

Harry Robertson – 7: A good debut for the youngster. He made a few mistakes but showed promise and provided a wonderful support for Sironen to set up Welsby’s opener.

Tee Ritson – 6: A marked improvement on last week without showing his attacking prowess.

Mark Percival – 7: He went from left to right and still cleaned his blood in the water.

Ben Davies – 6: Didn’t get a chance to show anything attacking wise and found himself in touch from a restart.

Waqa Blake – 6: A quiet night on the left wing apart from his try.

Jonny Lomax – 7: Lively from half back as he looked to guide Saints up the field.

Jack Welsby – 6: Pushed into the innings and got a try. He will hope for an improvement if he gets more minutes at stand-off.

Matty Lees – 7: Saw yellow after about 60 seconds, then went on without a substitution. He may not be making big yards, but he’s still putting in the hard work.

Daryl Clark – 7: Brought a spark to the idle half and kept the Wigan defense honest.

George Delaney – 6: Much of the young side props. Did well against the Wigan pack.

Curtis Sironen – 7: Found Robertson to set up Welsby’s try and looked the more energetic throughout.

James Bell – 6: Brought the same energy as always without punching holes in the Wigan defence.

Iggy Paasi – 6: Started as third prop and was solid enough.

Sam Royle – N/A: Unused exchange.

Jonny Vaughan – N/A: Brought on with little time to impact the game.

Jake Burns – N/A: Unused trade.

Noah Stephens – 6: Changed constantly with Paasi and carried himself with youthful exuberance.
