Some good numbers for the SL finals. Biggest ever tv audience for a play off game, third biggest playoff crowd at Wigan with 20,500 in attendance. Final is tracking well for one of the biggest attendances with HKR selling their first allocation of 10k in just a day!
'The epic clash between Warrington Wolves and St Helens attracted the highest television attendance in Super League play-off history. The contest was won by the Wolves in Golden Point in what was arguably the game of the season.
And it attracted a huge audience, with 385,000 watching the game across BBC and Sky Sports, the highest figure since the play-offs were introduced in 1998. It easily topped the previous figure set for a play-off game in 2022 when Salford took on St Helens, which was watched by 330,000. That game was also shown on free-to-air television by Channel 4. The peak figure was also a record, with over 500,000 watching at the same time.'
The good news keeps on coming for Super League with the play-offs delivering huge audiences.
