St Helens coach Nathan Brown says that defence let them down in their 28-16 loss to Wigan Warriors.

Nathan Brown has said that St Helens' defensive play let them down in their loss to Wigan Warriors earlier today.

Wigan moved to the top of the Super League table following their 28-16 win at the DW Stadium this lunchtime.

The Saints coach told BBC Sport: "The effort and commitment was terrific but we let ourselves down with our defence, especially in the first 15 or 20 minutes.

"I thought offensively we stretched them plenty in the second half but the most disappointing aspect was our defensive performance.

"It was an enjoyable occasion. It's great to hear all the fans singing and the way both sets of supporters get into the concept. But it's two points at the end of the day."

The defeat was St Helens' third of the season.
