- Wigan 24-20 Hull KR

It was dubbed the history makers versus the history chasers: and while the pendulum swung several ways throughout the course of an utterly gripping evening, it was the side who have seen and done it all that took pole position in the race for Super League’s top spot.
Given what we have seen so far in this incredible season, there are almost certainly one or two more twists and turns to come in the final fortnight before the playoffs begin. But with Wigan currently in possession of all four major trophies, it would take a brave individual to back against them retaining the League Leaders’ Shield from here.
