How to watch Super League Grand Final 2026: Live stream Warrington vs Wakefield
A new name is guaranteed to be etched onto the Super League Trophy on Saturday, as four time runners-up Warrington take on first-time Grand Finalists Wakefield at Old Trafford. It’s safe to assume that the Wolves won’t be expecting a great deal of neutral backing.
It’s not just that Trinity are major underdogs – they were a Championship side until last year – it’s the respective routes each side took to the Super League Grand Final.
Warrington’s semi-final clash with the injury-depleted Rhinos was shaping up to be a classic before Wolves captain George Williams hit the deck under the slightest contact. It was the sort of chicanery that needs to be stamped out of football, not adopted by rugby, and it decided the game, 18-year-old Ewan Irwin slotting home the resulting penalty.
As if Wakefield dashing Wigan’s treble hopes wasn’t enough of a shock, they did it in jaw-dropping fashion. Daryl Powell carried the look of a condemned man when Jazz Tevaga was sin-binned early and the Warriors raced into the lead, but what followed was nothing short of extraordinary.
In Wigan’s own backyard, Trinity reeled off five straight tries and 33 unanswered points, Tom Johnstone’s superb double and Jack Sinfield’s effort being the picks of the bunch. It’s worth reiterating that Wigan had gone into the match on a 16-game winning run.
The involvement of Powell adds another layer of fun to proceedings, Wakefield’s coach having endured a brief and unhappy spell with Warrington. The result that sealed his fate? A defeat by Wakefield.
