With only five rounds left, the Super League enters its final charge, keeping seven teams—Leeds Rhinos, Wakefield Trinity, Wigan Warriors, Warrington Wolves, Hull KR, Leigh Leopards and St Helens—in the hunt for a play‑off spot. The top two finishers secure home semi‑finals on 25‑26 September, while the third‑to‑sixth positions battle in the eliminators. The winners then face off at Old Trafford on 3 October for the Grand Final.

Leeds Rhinos sit atop the table with 36 points and will aim to clinch the League Leaders’ Shield, a first since 2015. Wigan Warriors, led by coach Matt Peet, are pushing hard for a home semi‑final and a chance to avenge their 2025 Grand Final loss to Hull KR. Wakefield Trinity, fresh from promotion, will look to overturn a two‑point defeat to Leeds and keep their highest finish on track. Warrington Wolves, with a game in hand, face a packed run‑in, while Hull KR, also with six matches remaining, aim for back‑to‑back titles under Willie Peters. Leigh Leopards, coached by Adrian Lam, and St Helens, battling to avoid a rare miss, will need a win‑rich run to secure a place in the playoffs.

The live coverage on Sky Sports ensures every match is broadcast, giving fans a front‑row seat to the drama that defines the final charge.
