I heard him on air on Radio 5 Live at midday and he hosted the rugby league on BBC Two from 19:30 until after 10. So he did indeed leave 5 Live Sport early to travel from Salford to Wigan. Now a late night or early morning journey to the other end of the country to be at Wembley at lunchtime!
Checking on BBC Sounds seems he left at half time just after 4pm (and it was referenced). The football crossed straight to the rugby at 4.45pm, but Chappers was back at half time in the rugby at 5.30pm (possibly from Wigan), then straight to the second half of the late football kick off.
Did C4 show the World Club Challenge last season - surprised this is in the FTA deal TBA, though perhaps Sky put less value on it than an actual Super League Match.
