Only four clubs - St Helens, Leeds, Wigan and Bradford Bulls - have had their name etched on the Super League trophy.

So without further ado, here is how the all-time table looks for those sides who have played for 10 or more seasons in the competition (with points accumulated in the Super 8s omitted).

St Helens - 985

The Merseyside club are on course to become the first club to accumulate 1,000 overall points. They have won the League Leaders' Shield nine times - four more than any other club - and have won the Grand Final a record nine times. They also have the most appearances in a Grand Final with 14.

Warrington Wolves - 740

Warrington Wolves hold the unwanted record of the most Grand Final appearances without ever winning the Super League title.

They have also accumulated the most points in the summer era without ever winning a league title, although they have won the League Leaders' Shield on two occasions.

Hull FC - 646

The Black and Whites have competed in 24 Super League seasons and are the highest placed side in the all-time table who have not played in every top-flight campaign of the summer era. They reached the Grand Final in 2006 but lost to St. Helens.
