Unlike other clubs, none of our WCC victories were won inside our own stadium so with home advantage.

19 years ago Bradford beat Penrith in the WCC and became the first superleague team to hold all four trophies on offer at the same time. Not even Saints and Leeds have managed to better that.

There are current first team players who weren't even born then.

…and yet the all conquering Leeds Rhinos have never held more than 4 trophies at the same time.

I.m pretty sure Saints did it in the 2006/2007 year, won the Challenge Cup, Won the League Leaders Shield, Won the Grand Final to qualify later for the WCC and beat Bribane Broncos. Had all 4 cups in the cabinet during the 2007 season.

They actually had 5 in total because they also got the BBC Sports Personality Team Award which has never been repeated,

Think the Wigoons did something similar in 1994/95, the 4 trophies were under a different set of silverware.

Do you really want to compare trophy cabinets?

Leeds have won twice as many Grand Finals, and nearly three times the amount of Challenge Cups than Bradford.

The amount of dick measuring going on in this thread is hilarious

What makes last seasons success even more remarkable was the unprecedented injury crisis they went through.

Stains did win the BBC sports team award but also Wigan had won it before Stains did.
