“There is a lot we can take out of the (St Helens) game but it’s big now if we want to be serious about making a crack at this top four, we have got to pick up two or three wins in these last games.
“So starting this week it is another big game for us.
“It is really tight. There are a lot of teams trying to make a crack at the top eight.
“It’s a big game for both teams and we will have to be on our game to get the win.”

Hide AdAshurst believes that Trinity need to produce more 80-minute performances in order to start winning the narrower games.
He added: “I think at the start of games, the last couple of games, we have let teams get out in front of us.
“And then we have got the job done in the second half but we have been playing catch up.
“I think a good start is important for us this week and we can go on and get the win.

“They are a big set, they are a physical team and Josh Drinkwater seems to be carrying them around the park well.
“They have been playing well and have picked up a few wins recently so we know it’s going to be a tough game.”
Tomorrow’s game kicks off at 6.30pm.
