The beginning of an NRL season is arguably the best time of the year.

Hope is in the air, whether it be genuine or not.

The chance for every single team to make Finals, even a Grand Final, is there for the taking!

As fans we can all be talked into believing that this is our year. Even though for 16 (soon to be 17) teams, that is not the case.

Today we are here to look forward to 2026. Specifically what your team has to look forward to next year.

These are meant to be light hearted, although truthfull.

With that said, below is the one thing your club has to look forward to in 2026:

14. Parramatta Eels: Moses stays fit, runs at Dally M

This is the biggest risk I'm taking but I'm backing Mitch Moses to stay fit in 2026 and play enough games to capture a Dally M medal.

Whether or not that is enough to drag the Eels back to Finals ... well, it should be!

Moses is one of the premier playmakers in the game. I'd argue he's the best big game number seven. See you in the comments Cleary fans.

If he stays fit, he'll see NSW home in the Origin series and the Eels to Finals, or there-abouts. I hope.

  1. Simplistic, controversial but enjoyable.
    – Cleary or Moses. I know – Cleary looks good for Penrith because of the rest of the team, and looks unimpressive for SOO because of the rest of the team. One team plays to his strengths, and one does not. I can’t split the two guys because Moses plays for a lesser team, and doesn’t get much SOO opportunity.

    – Newcastle. Untried combinations through the spine. KP will flatter to deceive, as usual.

    – Cronulla. Generation Next won’t get a run in first grade unless a coach crash hospitalises half the first team.

    Manly – I just don’t know what to expect ……
