Wigan Warriors’ incredible record under Matt Peet after League Leaders Shield win

Wigan Warriors head coach Matt Peet has an incredible record while in charge of his side.

This week, they secured the League Leaders’ Shield for the second season in-a-row with a 64-0 demolition job of a weakened Salford Red Devils side, who made 17 changes in preparation for an eliminator clash.

After 96 games in charge of the Cherry and Whites, he has a 77.1% win rate, which puts him comfortably ahead of Shaun Wane’s 67.5, and sixth in the club’s history for permanent head coaches.

It’s the highest percentage since Frank Endacott in 2000, making him statistically the best coach for 24 years.

That does, of course, include a 100% winning record in the World Club Challenge, and a 91% winning record in the Challenge Cup, having lost just one of eleven games in the competition.

Their Super League record has also improved year-on-year with him in charge, going from a win percentage of 72% in 2022, to 81% in 2023, and now, so far, to 84% in 2024.
