Super League: St Helens 58-0 Salford Red Devils

Feldt scored one of St Helens’ 15 tries in the 82-0 dismantling of the Red Devils in February, and it took just nine minutes to get the ball rolling here as a defensive lapse in concentration allowed him to power through a gap.

While unable to lay a glove on the hosts, Salford showed resolve and commitment in defence, but lost Saints loanee Jonny Vaughan to a dislocated shoulder after 17 minutes.

And moments later, Deon Cross’ offload put Dagnall in for a diving finish in the left corner from a set which the 18-year-old had ignited with a burst inside his own half.

Nimble footwork from Tristan Sailor created an overlap on the right edge for Feldt to go in for his second.

And Salford’s defensive efforts looked to be taking their toll when Knowles went through a sizeable gap for a simple run-in shortly before the interval.

Within eight minutes of the restart, Knowles’ inside pass sent Clark away through the visitors’ soft centre for an easy finish before Dagnall sidefooted Jonny Lomax’s pass to the right corner and then sprinted to dot it down.

It began to look ominous when Harry Robertson’s burst and one-handed offload gave Sailor a clear run to the line for a seventh Saints try inside the hour.

Sailor sprinted under the posts but gifted the score to Jake Burns for his first try of the season, and the hooker had to wait just three minutes for his second as he burrowed over from close range.

Lomax’s seventh goal took Saints to 50 points before Sailor breached a now-porous defence for his second score and then sent Feldt over in the corner for his third.
