Clinical Saints Thrash Young Warriors There was only one possible winner as a full-strength St Helens side took on a very young and inexperienced Wigan Warriors in the first original derby of the 2020 season. Wigan coach Adrian Lam had clearly prioritised the weekends Challenge Cup semi-final game against the Leeds Rhinos whereas Saints had no such distraction as they focussed wholly on their league position.
The bookies gave the Warriors no chance at all, handing them a twenty-eight point start on the coupon. Everything pointed to a Saints massacre as Wigan debuted six players including the son of league legend Ellery Hanley.
