So we've got our two competitiors for next week's Super League Grand Final.

St Helens and Wigan Warriors will battle it out at the KCOM Stadium next Friday evening having demolished their respective opponents in this week's play-off semi-finals.

It's all lined up to be a fantastic occasion to end a memorable season against the odds.

I'll be back next week to take you through it. For now, thank you for joining us.

If you're just joining us, where have you been?! You've missed a pretty eventful Super League play-off semi-final.

Fortunately we've got you covered on a remarkable game that saw eight tries, a hat-trick and two sin bins.

Catalans Dragons head coach Steve McNamara told Sky Sports:

"I'm disappointed with the finish on the scoreboard after the effort from everyone at the club this year.

"To get beaten like that is harsh. I have two men in the sin bin for a period of time.

"I thought it was a really physical game particularly in the first half. We weren't worried at half-time but the first few minutes of the second half cost us.

"Tonight's game is about St Helens and Wigan getting to the Grand Final and clearly those two teams are the best in the competition. We couldn't score a try and neither could Hull last night."

St Helens head coach Kristian Woolf told Sky Sports:

"We were outstanding. I was really happy with the way we attacked. We controlled the game well and we backed that up with good defence.

"Alex Walmsley's injury isn't serious at all. It was bothering him a bit and having the opportunity to bring him off, we felt was the right thing to do. He'll be back next week.

"I haven't spoken to James Graham or the doctor yet but seven days means he can play if he comes through the protocol in the next week but I'd love to see him there."

St Helens full-back Lachlan Coote told Sky Sports:

"I'm very proud of the boys' effort. A couple of weeks ago we came into a lost and felt bad about it but the two weeks off helped us.

"We lifted the intensity in training and it showed tonight and it was a massive effort from the middles.

Goalkicking has been a focus this year but my form is due to the boys and the service I'm getting."

They've done it, however it's been a foregone conclusion for quite some time.

St Helens go through to their first Super League Grand Final under Kristian Woolf and second in as many seasons.

Catalans miss the opportunity to progress to the final for the first time in their history.

Catalans work the ball around St Helens 10 and desperately try to win a pathway through to get a consolation try.

But Saints win the ball back on the turnover and the visitors' attack is quelled before it even got going.

Dear oh dear. Alex Walmsley's not looked quite right all night since his knock early on.

He clutches his knee following a Matt Whitley tackle and he goes to ground in some discomfort.

That's not what St Helens want a week away from a potential Super League Grand Final.

Another Catalans tackle that causes a row on the field.

This time Ben Garcia puts in a high arm on Jonny Lomax off the ball and he's sent to the bin.

That's the Dragons' second yellow card this evening. Pointless.

There's some more afters on the field, this time following a high David Mead tackle on Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook

I get that it's a semi-final and massive games can be tense, but Catalans have been doing this all night and look short of answers as to actually score points.

Mead avoids a yellow card, just.

Tommy Makinson has just wiggled his way through a crowd of Catalan players after receiving a high kick.

Moments later Benjamin Garcia absolutely takes out Lachlan Coote.

To be honest, at this stage I think Catalans' only tactics are just to bullishly tackle anyone and everyone they can because they've got few answers as to how to even keep possession for longer than a few passes upfield.

Hold on, Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook is back out there for St Helens!!

My word what is this, Super League or WWE?

Let us know on social media using #bbcrl how you see this one panning out.

St Helens have lost two players. Can Catalans take advantage? Or are Saints coasting through to a second successive Grand Final?

James Maloney very much at the centre of this first half and not for the right reasons.

The Catalans half-back's yellow card for a high arm on Regan Grace has changed this game and St Helens have gone on to take a 12-point lead in at the break.

A lot for Dragons boss Steve McNamara to contemplate at half-time.

Saints, however, have lost James Graham and Louie McCarthy-Scarsbrook to HIA.

A big 40 minutes awaits.
