Wakefield Trinity Win First Super League Title

A dominant 19-0 first half capped by Tom Johnstone’s decisive try completed a rapid revival that began with the club’s 2023 relegation.

Overview

  • Wakefield beat Warrington Wolves 23-10 at a sold-out Old Trafford on Saturday to claim the club’s first Super League championship.
  • Wakefield built a 19-0 half-time lead through tries by Cameron Scott, Isaiah Vagana and Jazz Tevaga plus a Jack Sinfield drop goal, which set the platform for victory.
  • Corey Hall was sin-binned early in the second half after a high tackle, Arron Lindop scored twice to briefy reduce the deficit, and Tom Johnstone’s try restored Wakefield’s control.
  • Johnstone was named the Rob Burrow Award winner for man of the match and coach Daryl Powell secured his first Grand Final triumph after taking charge during the club’s post-relegation rebuild.
  • The win makes Wakefield only the sixth club to lift the Super League trophy and marks a major turnaround for a team that returned to the top flight in 2025 after relegation in 2023.
