Super League’s 26-year existence has witnessed some bumper crowds over the seasons with records consistently being broken.

From the list, it is quite clear that one fixture trumps all with Wigan and St Helens games being responsible for six of the top ten.

But, just which ten regular round games have brought in the most spectators?

31,555 Catalans Dragons v Wigan Warriors (18/5/19)
(at Camp Nou, Barcelona)
25,004 Wigan Warriors v St Helens (25/3/05)
24,057 Wigan Warriors v St Helens (22/4/11)
24,054 Wigan Warriors v St Helens (3/4/15)
24,028 Wigan Warriors v St Helens (6/4/07)
24,020 Bradford Bulls v Leeds Rhinos (3/9/99)
23,861 Wigan Warriors v St Helens (29/3/13)
23,390 Wigan Warriors v St Helens (14/4/17)

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

No, it’s not! But I bet they’d like it to be 😉

But the Wigan v Saints games have had the biggest attendances in the top ten they showed & we are always being challenged by the Yorkshire teams that ours isn’t the Biggest Derby!
