- Women’s Super League final: St Helens 8-18 York Valkyrie
- Owen, Partington and Gentles score tries in victory
On a day when Penrith Panthers made history in Australia by becoming the first side to win four successive NRL titles, York Valkyrie decided they were in the mood to write their own slice of rugby league folklore, too.
The development of the Women’s Super League in recent years has brought the emergence of a big four: St Helens, Leeds Rhinos, Wigan Warriors and the Valkyrie. York, by their own admission, have always been a little bit of an outlier in that quartet, given their men’s side play outside Super League and they do not have the backing that the other trio perhaps do.
