Wigan’s coach, Matt Peet, insisted this week there are at least four sides who will have a strong say in the make-up of this year’s Grand Final. In terms of the league table he is undeniably right but if it is Wigan versus St Helens at Old Trafford come October, we are going to be in for a treat.
St Helens recently passed 1,000 consecutive days as Super League champions so perhaps it was fitting they delivered a victory filled with the characteristic that has set them apart from the chasing pack for the past three years: their ability to never give in.
