Wigan Warriors’ Liam Farrell Reaches Impressive 150-Try Milestone

On Thursday night, Wigan Warriors forward Liam Farrell achieved an remarkable feat, scoring his 150th career try during his team’s victory over Catalans Dragons. This astonishing number from a forward cements Farrell’s status as one of the best try-scoring players of the modern rugby league era.

Farrell’s Impressive Try-Scoring Record

Of Farrell’s 150 career tries, 126 have come in the Super League competition, placing him second on the all-time list for forwards. Only the legendary St Helens hooker Keiron Cunningham, with 138 Super League tries, has scored more than the Wigan captain.

Farrell’s try-scoring prowess has seen him draw level with St Helens half-back Jonny Lomax on the Super League’s all-time try scorers list. With time still on his side, the England international looks primed to surpass Cunningham’s record and cement his place as the most prolific try-scoring forward in the competition’s history.

“Liam Farrell’s remarkable achievement highlights his enduring class and impact as one of the standout forwards in the modern game. His continued excellence will be key as Wigan Warriors chase further success in the Super League and beyond.”

Other Forwards Reaching 100-Try Milestone

Other forwards to have reached the prestigious 100-try milestone in Super League include Warrington’s Ben Westwood (119), Huddersfield’s Leroy Cudjoe (118), retired St Helens legend James Roby (105), and Bradford and St Helens stalwart Lee Gilmour (102). Former St Helens captain Paul Sculthorpe also finished his career with exactly 100 Super League tries.
