Super League honours: all-time titles, records, history
Records and milestones
Longest streak
St Helens won four in a row (2019-2022) — the longest streak of the Super League era.
Biggest winning margin
Bradford Bulls 96-16 Salford Reds (June 2000) is the largest margin in any Super League regular-season match. Grand Final margins have been tighter; Wigan's 2010 win over Saints by 22-10 stands out as one of the more comprehensive deciders.

The story so far
Super League launched in 1996 as British rugby league's switch to summer rugby. In its first thirty seasons, just five clubs have won the title — St Helens with 10, Leeds Rhinos with 8, Wigan Warriors with 7, Bradford Bulls with 4, and now Hull KR with 1 after their breakthrough 2025 treble. The Grand Final has been played at Old Trafford every year since 1998 (the only exception being the 2020 COVID-disrupted final at the KCOM Stadium in Hull). The regular-season leader takes the League Leaders' Shield; the Grand Final winner takes the Super League Trophy. The man of the match in the Grand Final has been awarded the Rob Burrow Award since 2024, in tribute to the late Leeds Rhinos legend who died from MND.
