The club then went on to win premierships in 2004, 2016 and 2019 to be second behind Redcliffe in most premierships in Cup history.

To celebrate the Intrust Super Cup milestone, a 17 man team of the best players to wear the Maroon and White over the last 25 years in the Intrust Super Cup will be announced.
