St Helens snapped a three-match winless slide with a dominant 38-6 Super League victory over struggling Huddersfield. Curtis Sironen scored twice in the first half, powering over in the 21st minute after a pass from Daryl Clark, then adding a second five minutes later. Nene Mac Donald made it 24-0 at halftime with a converted try, his first appearance since May following injury.

Huddersfield finally got on the board through Cole Geyer just before the hour mark, but Alex Walmsley quickly responded to restore the advantage. The match ended with Jake Davies capping a comprehensive performance with two late tries, including a spectacular charge down the wing and a spin move in the corner, while Harry Robertson also crossed.

The 38-6 scoreline masks the convincing nature of Saints' performance, who moved up the table with their first win since April. MacDonald's return from a month-long absence provided a boost, linking effectively with Jackson Hastings. For Huddersfield, the defeat extends their relegation concerns as they continue to struggle in the top flight.
