“We had Liam Farrell and Matty Peet up on stage, we interviewed them and showed a highlights reel of them winning all four trophies. Or as I said last night, you’ve now won five trophies!
We’ve actually got
six we won the Locker Cup on June 1st 2024 v Warrington Wolves at the Halliwell Jones.

good to see. Let's hope we get the one at SPOTY again. There is no one else who I can even think deserves consideration.

Of course it’s a proper cup. Wire won it on the toss of a coin
in the first match.
Proper team photos since have shown the Locker Cup in Wigans armoury.

It looked like a cup/trophy to me when I’ve seen the captain carrying it. It also looked like a cup/trophy when I’ve seen it in the trophy cabinet.
in the first match.
