St Helens coach Daniel Anderson has to decide whether to recall a fit-again Jason Cayless after the Kiwi Test prop came through a full training session yesterday.

Cayless, a Grand Final winner in Australia with Sydney Roosters, hasn’t played since damaging a knee at Huddersfield a week before last month’s Challenge Cup final. 

Cayless is set to replace Hull-bound Nick Fozzard, who has been left out of Saints’ Wembley line-up despite impressing in the  semi-final win over Leeds.

“It’s a difficult decision, but not an uncomfortable one,” said Anderson, who takes charge of Saints for the last time on Saturday before returning to Australia.

Anderson doesn’t feel the semi-final win over Leeds a fortnight ago will have any bearing on Saturday’s game.

“Leeds may have been off the pace then but they have never had a psychological problem,” he added. “Most players, side for side, are either current or ex-international or the best youngsters in the game. We both have our fair share of hard heads and youth, the balance is strong and that’s why we are both in the Grand Final.”

Saints skipper Keiron Cunningham is set to give Saints a pre-final boost by  signing a new 12-month contract.

But prop Sam Thompson is joining Widnes and strength and conditioning coach Apollo Perelini is leaving to head up an elite sporting academy in Dubai.
