Highlights from the first round of the 2009 Super League play-off matches. The format has been revamped this year, with the number of teams increased to eight. The first stage of matches pits the team finishing top of the league against the fourth-placed club while second meets third. The losers of those two games will still get a chance to progress as they will face the winners of the two matches involving the fifth to eight-placed clubs next weekend. St Helens have finished top of the Super League for the past four seasons but only once in that time have they gone on to win the Grand Final.
