Every NRLW season begins with optimism for footy fans. New recruits arrive, combinations are formed and every club believes this could finally be their year.
Sometimes this exercise can feel like banging my head against a brick wall -- thanks Panthers!
State of Origin takes one final shot at messing up the NRL season, with just the five games to be decided this weekend. We start the round with what could have been a fantastic game between the Panthers and Rabbitohs.
We had another fascinating round of NRL action with the Panthers losing to a fired-up Cowboys side, the Sea Eagles thumping the battered Storm, and the Dolphins continuing to impress with a win over the Warriors.
Dolphins sharp shooter Jamayne Isaako has landed a 78th minute sideline conversion to secure a 26-24 win over the Warriors after star halfback Isaiya Katoa suffered a dislocated wrist injury.
We are back to a full round this weekend as the NRL season really starts to sort the wheat from the chaff. There are some teams that are out of the Top 8 who are really reaching desperation time, with teams above them disappearing into the distance.
There are several very tough games to tip this weekend, as teams in form meet and others that are struggling take on teams they would normally beat.
Warriors prop Jackson Ford is set to be sidelined for the rest of the NRL regular season with a pectoral injury in a blow to the club's minor premiership aspirations.
It was an interesting post-Origin round with the depleted Panthers losing to the lowly Titans, the Warriors winning in Christchurch, the Bulldogs thieving a victory over Manly and Roosters firmly putting the Sharks in their place.
Canterbury have snatched their sixth win of the NRL season to keep their finals hopes alive with skipper Stephen Crichton landing a golden-point field goal for a 13-12 victory over Manly.
With Origin II under our belts, the NRL season powers on through June, as the temperature tumbles and the ladder sorts itself out. This week three teams have the bye leaving seven games to be decided.
Another post-Origin round coming up with players backing up or taking rests, making it tough to tip. Recent weeks have proven that the surest of things are just as likely to lose as any other team.
What a disappointing weekend for fans of teams that started the year with so much promise. The Broncos, Raiders and Warriors were all well short of the standard expected from them, as they suffered costly losses.
State of Origin II is on the horizon and so Round 15 of the NRL season contains just the five games. Once again, tippers will be relieved to have just the five games to get right, but some of the teams that are playing are still short-staffed.
Cronulla have blown the NRL's top-four race wide open with a courageous and epic 10-8 victory over the high-flying Warriors in Auckland.
Well, didn't the Broncos prove emphatically last week that they should not be called "sure things" no matter who they are playing. With only five games this week and Origin playing havoc, it's a tough round to analyse.
What is going on at the Broncos? For a second straight week they have fallen to team from the bottom of the ladder. Meanwhile the top of the ladder Panthers have put on an absolutely stunning performance against the bewildered Tigers.
After three months of the 2026 NRL season, it is time again to evaluate the teams. Who have the best chance to win the premiership? Who are legitimate contenders? And which teams should be looking towards the 2027 season?
We are back to a full NRL round this week, with some really tough games to tip, particularly following on from last weekend's upsets. Are the Dragons about to go on a run to the finals?
This weekend is full of intriguing clashes. Which teams will bounce back from losses, which teams will put back-to-back performances together? Will the Dragons continue their charge up the ladder, as the Bulldogs continue their fall down it?
The Dragons have pulled off the biggest upset in rugby league history (a large dose of recency bias thrown in there). The Bulldogs returned to being rubbish, the Storm upset the Roosters, and the Raiders bounced back against the Cowboys.
Penrith have opened up a significant buffer at the top of the NRL ladder, seeing off the Warriors despite missing the majority of their State of Origin stars in a nailbiting 20-18 win.
The NRL season continues around the State of Origin interruption, with an almost full round set to follow Origin I. It always pays to wait until later in the week to see which Origin stars will be backing up for their clubs.
The NRL season has reached the State of Origin period, with plenty of byes and key players missing. It makes tipping easier and yet tougher at the same time.
With State of Origin upon us, we saw the first of the abbreviated rounds. The teams that were required to play weren't all free from Origin absentees and there were a couple of surprise results.
