Molly Jones barely had time to catch her breath before she was over the line again. By the final whistle, the Wigan Warriors forwards had scored eleven tries, buried their fiercest neighbours 56-4, and stretched a winning streak that now reads ten from ten. But this was no accident of a single afternoon — it was the sixth time in 2026 that Jones and Grace Banks had crossed in the same match, and the fourth Wigan win over St Helens this year alone.
That kind of dominance matters because it is happening in the Betfred Women's Super League, the top flight of women's rugby league in England, where Wigan are rewriting what "on form" actually means. The game pitted the league's leaders against their closest rivals, St Helens, in the reverse of a fixture played just sixteen days earlier. In that opener Wigan had won 44-6. This time they went further, pouring on 56 points and eleven tries to keep their perfect record alive.
The scoring came fast and from everywhere. Jones and Banks each touched down once in every half. Anna Davies' late try was Wigan's tenth of the match — the moment the team sailed past the 50-point mark. Belle Derbyshire, Aimee Hunter, Chloe Foubister, and Jade Salihi added their names to the try sheet, while Rowe calmly slotted six conversions. St Helens' lone reply came from Dennis, a single bright spot in an afternoon of relentless pressure.
What makes this run remarkable is its completeness. Wigan have now beaten St Helens in all four meetings in 2026, including the Challenge Cup final back in May, and they have won every one of their ten Women's Super League fixtures this season. Saturday's victory pushed them four points clear at the top of the table, with Leeds Rhinos — their nearest challengers, who faced York Valkyrie the following day — looking up at a Warriors side that has yet to drop a single league point.
For a sport that has spent years fighting for attention and investment, such a dominant unbeaten campaign is more than a scoreline. It is proof of how far women's rugby league has come — full stadiums, fast play, and records that would impress in any league on the planet. As the season rolls toward its finish, every Wigan fixture now carries a quiet question: can anyone stop them? For ten straight games, the answer has been a clear no. Saturday, under pressure from their oldest rivals, they answered it again — with eleven tries and a perfect record still intact.
