Seven Tackle Set | NRL Supercoach Podcast

This episode breaks down the latest NRL trials from a SuperCoach 2026 perspective, headlined by a huge scoop with Fuller and the growing question of whether he’s becoming a must-have option.

We also unpack Trey Mooney’s dominant showing, what the “last touch” rule could mean for Nicho Hynes’ relevance, Patston’s encouraging signs, and mixed takeaways from Kini, the Sharks, and the Eels. As always with trials, context matters, so we focus on what could translate into the season and what may simply be noise.

This episode breaks down the major talking points from the latest NRL trials, including the Knights’ spine decisions, Luciano Leilua’s role and relevance, and whether the Tigers are showing genuine improvement heading into SuperCoach 2026.

We unpack what these performances could mean for team structure, job security, and early-season decision-making, while keeping trial context front of mind. Not every strong showing translates into season success, so we focus on what matters and what may be noise.

This episode breaks down the first round cornerstones for NRL SuperCoach Draft 2026, focusing on the players we believe you should be building your draft teams around. We discuss positional scarcity, consistency, upside, and why certain players provide the strongest foundation for the rest of your draft.

Whether you’re picking early or late in the first round, understanding who can anchor your team is critical. This episode walks through the mindset behind elite draft strategy and what separates good draft teams from great ones.
