How The NRL Second-row Ratings Work
The NRL Player Ratings for second-rowers rank the best players in the NRL based on fan votes from the NRL Player Rater. Every player is matched head-to-head against other second-rowers, allowing fans to directly compare and decide who is better in each matchup.
Because all comparisons are position-specific, these rankings provide a true reflection of the best NRL second-row, rather than mixing players across different roles. So if you're looking for the best second-row, this list is built only on fair, like-for-like matchups.
Our system uses an Elo-style rating algorithm, where every player starts on the same rating and gains or loses points after each vote. Beating a higher-ranked opponent results in a bigger increase, while losing to a lower-ranked player leads to a larger drop.
These ratings are live and constantly updating, meaning they reflect current form and momentum across the NRL season. Players can climb quickly with standout performances, but staying at the top requires consistently outperforming other elite second-rowers.
If you're searching for the best NRL second-row, these fan-driven rankings provide a clear and up-to-date view of who is leading the way right now.
Have your say! Head to the NRL Player Rater and start voting today.
