Remember you can watch the highlights of tonight's match on BBC Two tomorrow at 17:30 BST (in Scotland, the programme begins at 18:00 BST).

And that is pretty much it from me. It has been another Grand Final to remember - for some good reasons and, unfortunately, for some bad reasons as well.

On the domestic front, at least, we will see you again in 2015.

So St Helens are champions after another intense derby match with Wigan Warriors. Tries from Sia Soliola and Tommy Makinson ended their eight-year wait for the Super League title.

The domestic season may be over, but fear not rugby league fans, because the Four Nations starts in two weeks.

England will be testing themselves against the best teams in the world - Australia, New Zealand and Samoa.

All of England's games, starting with the clash against Samoa on 25 October, will be screened live on the BBC.

And now the celebrations can begin. St Helens coach Nathan Brown is posing with the Super League trophy for the cameras, while various media outlets are attempting to grab a few words with the players involved.

And now for the victorious St Helens squad. Captain Paul Wellens takes the microphone to offer his commiserations to Wigan, his thanks to the players and their families. And finally to the Saints' supporters: "Tonight was for you," he says. Then he lifts the trophy and gets showered in champagne.

The beaten Wigan Warriors players are being presented with their losers' prizes. A season without silverware for Shaun Wane's side, which is a rare occurrence. You can be sure they will be desperate to put that right in 2015.

"Brilliant game. Brutal, skilful and engaging. Saints were the much better team in the second half. Chants of 'it's coming home' sung by their fans."

St Helens forward Mark Flanagan told BBC Radio 5 live:

"It was a fast start and we had to compose ourselves, make sure we did not retaliate and keep our heads.

"It is a dream come true, playing on an occasion like this and to get the win in a magnificent match like this against Wigan is amazing."

"The Wigan players have sunk to their knees, the players are in tears on the Old Trafford pitch.

"After five horrible years, the Saints have sparkled under the Old Trafford lights. Against all the odds St Helens have beaten the champions."

St Helens chairman Eamonn McManus has made his way onto the pitch for the post-match celebrations, as has Jon Wilkin, who missed today's game with a shoulder injury. The Saints players are jumping up and down in front of their jubilant supporters, who have waited eight years for this.

"St Helens have been a fantastic team throughout my career. Nathan Brown said that these guys were a completely different group from those that lost all those finals and they showed that tonight."

St Helens have been written off many times this season. Injuries have decimated their squad at times, and robbed them of some key players in the closing weeks of the campaign, but they end the 2014 season as League Leaders' Shield winners and Grand Final winners.

Plenty of credit must go to Wigan, who fought on for 78 minutes with 12 men following Ben Flower's early red card. But it is St Helens who emerge victorious at Old Trafford. Not a bad leaving present for departing head coach Nathan Brown.

"The Wigan fans are leaving. They were big favourites coming into this match but that double punch from Ben Flower turned this game on its head.

"In contrast the Saints fans are looking to the skies and punching the air. The noise from the Stretford End from the Saints fans is deafening."

The fans count down the final few seconds, the final hooter goes, and St Helens are the 2014 Super League champions!

St Helens hookerJames Roby has been named man of the match and will be presented with the Harry Sunderland Trophy at full-time.

"You have got to give credit to Wigan, they have never not been in the game but they have been down to 12 men for the entire match.

"Credit to St Helens, they took in what Nathan Brown said at half-time and came out flying.

"I think St Helens, after all their suffering on this pitch, deserved this win."

St Helens have lost in each of their last five Grand Final appearances, but today will be their day. A first Super League title in eight years is less than two minutes away.

Tensions are beginning to simmer again at Old Trafford as John Bateman and Sia Soliola are involved in a clash under the posts. The pair are quickly separated and play restarts with a St Helens penalty.

"Delirium in the St Helens end after that try from Tommy Makinson. Fans are hugging, kissing and generally in party mood as Wigan try to respond."
