Matt Peet has already achieved much in his short time as Wigan Warriors head coach, and he could complete the set of trophies in just his third season in charge.
In his first season, 2022, the 39-year-old guided the Cherry and Whites to their Challenge Cup title in nine years.
Last campaign, he led his boyhood club to Super League glory with Grand Final victory at Old Trafford, having also finished top of the regular-season table for the League Leaders’ Shield.
That success has given Wigan a shot at the World Club Challenge, with Penrith Panthers making the trip to a sold-out DW Stadium on Saturday, 24 February, live on Two.
The desire to retain their league crown is one thing, but for Peet the lure of clinching Wigan’s fifth World Club Challenge title is a major incentive.
“In some ways it feels we haven’t looked too much beyond that,” Peet told Radio 5 live.
“It’s such a big game, we are preparing for that and we’ll learn so much, win or lose, about our team and we’ll find out where we’re at. It could well shape the rest of our season.”
While it would be an individual achievement for the likeable Peet, the man himself is focused on the collective when it comes to building success in WN5.
“What I love seeing is the group come together and building the connections on and off the field,” Peet added.
“I feel like for a successful season, we would have to be involved in the big games. Whether it’s one or both, we’ve also got the World Club Challenge, but we want more chances to compete for silverware.”
