He started in last year’s Challenge Cup triumph over Huddersfield Giants at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, later forced from the field with an elbow injury during the 16-14 win.

Cust featured in the opening six rounds of 2023 but was sidelined ahead of the clash against rivals Leigh Leopards due to a neck injury and later struggled to return to the halves with Bevan French shifted from the wing to partner Harry Smith.

He made a total of 14 Super League appearances in 2023, registering one try and four assists, as Wigan claimed the League Leaders’ Shield.

The one-time Indigenous All Stars representative was also a part of the reserves side that defeated St Helens 24-0 in the Grand Final alongside first team players Iain Thornley, Ryan Hampshire, Junior Nsemba and Joe Shorrocks.

"I'd like to say a massive thank you to Wigan Warriors for the past two years, to the coaching staff, the players and most importantly the fans,” Cust wrote on Instagram.

“I've enjoyed every moment and have made some lifelong mates along the way which I'll be forever grateful for.

"I've gained some amazing memories in this jersey which I'll never forget.

“Thank you.”
