It gave all of the competition here a shot in the arm and was the first time a British side had won in Australia since Wigan’s famous 1994 victory against Brisbane.

But it also provided Challenge Cup holders Wigan – second favourites for Super League – a timely reminder of how far they need to go, given they suffered a poor 27-18 opening-day loss at Hull KR just hours later.
