St Helens' James Roby analyses his side's performance at Wigan with Jon Wells

James Roby joined Jon Wells at the Skypad to analyse St Helens' victory over Wigan Warriors.

Saints demonstrated superb defensive mettle to end the regular season on a high with a fifth straight victory that keeps alive their play-off semi-final hopes.

It was 4-4 after half an hour, two penalties from the boot of Mark Percival cancelling out a try from Wigan's Lewis Tierney.

The visitors seized control with two tries in a seven-minute spell before half-time through Percival and Morgan Knowles and then tackled Wigan out of the game in the second half, condemning their opponents to 70 scoreless minutes.

Roby capped off a fine perfomance for the Saints with a try at the death, rubbing salt into the wounds of their fierce rivals.

A fifth successive win enables Saints to draw level on points with fourth-placed Catalans Dragons while Wigan will drop to third going into the Super 8s if Warrington beat Huddersfield on Saturday.
