Wigan coach Matt Peet says a speech by former captain Andy Farrell helped inspire his side to a 30-10 victory over reigning champions St Helens that guaranteed them a top-two finish in Super League.

Farrell, now head coach of the Ireland rugby union team, made 370 appearances for the Warriors from 1991 to 2004 and helped them win six league titles and four Challenge Cups.
