Wigan Warriors perfect, Salford Red Devils flying, St Helens mid-table in Super League form table
Over the last five rounds in Super League, only table topping Wigan Warriors have maintained a 100% record, with St Helens among those who have stuttered as we first reached and then surpassed the midway point in the season.
With breaks for the Challenge Cup final and the mid-season international between England & France, the latest ‘form table’ – which spans Round 13 to Round 17 inclusive – actually dates back to the end of May.
As well as lifting the Challenge Cup, Wigan – who are now four competition points clear at the top of the ladder – have picked up five Super League wins from five in that time.
Their Super League victories over the last five rounds have included successes against both Warrington Wolves & Saints, who they beat last Friday night at The Brick Community Stadium in Round 17.
Over the same period, Paul Wellens’ side have managed to pick up just four competition points, losing games to Salford Red Devils & Castleford Tigers as well as the Warriors.
Elsewhere, both Salford & Hull KR have won four of their last five Super League outings, increasing the likelihood of finishing in the play-off spots come the end of the regular season in a few months’ time.
But one side in London Broncos have failed to pick up any competition points in their last five. The Broncos, who sit bottom of the ladder, have lost 16 of their 17 league games so far this season since winning promotion from the Championship against the odds.
Recently, their defeats have included a 52-6 drubbing by Saints at Twickenham Stoop and a 36-0 thumping at Wigan as well as a heartbreaking 17-16 defeat at Headingley against Leeds Rhinos in Golden Point extra time.
During the period this form table covers, we’ve also seen two head coaches depart in Super League. Leeds Rhinos parted company with Rohan Smith, and has now been replaced – in the short-term until the end of the campaign – by Brad Arthur.
Huddersfield Giants then dismissed Ian Watson, with the search for his successor still ongoing.
