- Hull KR beat Wigan Warriors 24-6 at Old Trafford to secure the Challenge Cup, League Leaders' Shield and the club's first Super League title.
- Jared Waerea-Hargreaves was cleared by a tribunal to play the final after a semi-final Grade C charge and delivered a standout farewell display that drew Rob Burrow Award votes.
- The RFL Match Review Panel later charged Waerea-Hargreaves with a Grade B shoulder charge and Grade A other contrary behaviour, imposing a four-game ban that will not be served.
- Other Grand Final sanctions included a two-match suspension for Wigan hooker Brad O’Neill for a Grade D dangerous throw, with Liam Farrell and Adam Keighran receiving Grade A charges that resulted in fines or no further action.
- Veteran hooker Michael McIlorum ended his career by playing through a fractured ankle after missing eight matches, having earlier returned ahead of schedule from a torn bicep.
