St Helens kept their Super League play-off aspirations alive with a decisive 36-12 victory over Castleford. The match, held at the Brewdog Stadium, saw a dominant performance from St Helens, who utilized a strong first-half display to establish control over the game.

A significant factor in the match was Castleford being reduced to 10 men, which hampered their ability to compete with St Helens' offensive pressure. St Helens capitalized on this numerical advantage by spreading their scoring efforts across the team, with six different players crossing the try line throughout the contest. While the victory provides a necessary boost to St Helens' league standing, the result leaves Castleford struggling to recover from the disadvantage of their reduced squad size.
