From Premiers to the bottom four… WTF has happened to the Brisbane Broncos?! We review Brisbane’s disastrous season, the blame game between Madge, the players and club management, whether Adam Reynolds went a year too long, and the attitude problems that saw the Broncos concede a staggering 677 points. We also look at the emergence of Xavier Willison, Billy Walters’ return and name our Broncos Player of the Year. Who’s to blame for Brisbane’s downfall, and how do they turn it around?

The Penrith Panthers finished as minor premiers and were widely tipped to win the competition, so how did it all end in another Prelim Final heartbreak? With seven Preliminary Finals in a row, is this season a failure, or were injuries simply too much to overcome? We review Penrith’s 2026 campaign, including the devastating injuries to Mitch Kenny, Isaah Yeo, Dylan Edwards, Nathan Cleary and Blaize Talagi at the worst possible time. We discuss the ongoing uncertainty in the halves, what the future holds for Blaize Talagi, and Nathan Cleary’s phenomenal individual season. Are the Panthers still the benchmark of the NRL, or are we finally witnessing the decline of a dynasty? All this and more in the League of Inches Panthers Season Review!
The Dolphins 2026 season review is here! Was this the start of a successful run for the Dolphins, or will this season go down as a one-off? We break down their year, including the worrying defensive performances that saw them concede 52 and 66 points at Redcliffe, and whether their forward pack has what it takes to compete with the best. There were plenty of positives in the backline, with Selwyn Cobbo returning to form, Herbie Farnworth putting together a phenomenal season, Max Bostock earning an Origin debut and Jamayne Isaako continuing to deliver consistently. But is there enough across the squad to take the next step? We also name our Dolphins Player of the Year and look at what needs to change heading into 2027. Can the Dolphins turn their potential into sustained success, or are there still too many question marks? Tune in to League of Inches for our full Dolphins season review!
The NZ Warriors finished equal first after the regular season, had the Wahs Nation firing, and looked like genuine premiership contenders… so how did it all end in straight sets? We review the Warriors' 2026 campaign, debating whether going out after two home finals is a failure, how much their struggles in the halves held them back, and whether they missed a golden opportunity to go all the way. We also discuss JFH's leadership, Leka's emergence as a centre, and the battle for the fullback jersey — has Taine Tuaupiki done enough to become the clear number one? Was 2026 a successful season for the Wahs, or a missed opportunity? Let's get into it!
The League of Inches boys are back with another big episode, covering the latest NRL news, transfer rumours and Rugby League World Cup action! The PNG Chiefs officially unveil their logo and foundation support jersey as preparations continue for their arrival in 2028.

The transfer rumour mill is also firing, with the Roosters emerging as favourites to sign Stefano Utoikamanu, Paul Kent linking Zac Lomax's Dragons teammate Tyrell Sloan with a move to Parramatta, and the Knights reportedly offering Bradman Best $700K. Plus, the Bulldogs are in advanced talks to bring Jeral Skelton back to the club, while the Roosters are reportedly set to sign Sam Verrills on a development deal.

The Cronulla Sharks were out of the finals after finishing the year with just 2 wins from their final 7 games, but is this season a step forward or another missed opportunity for the Sharks? On this League of Inches Season Review, we break down Cronulla's 2026 campaign, assess the halves dilemma and debate whether this squad has what it takes to genuinely challenge for a premiership. We also put the forward pack under the microscope, with big names like AFB and Briton Nikora delivering inconsistent performances throughout the year. Have the Sharks hit their ceiling, or is there enough talent in this squad to take the next step in 2027? We discuss where Cronulla are at, what needs to change and what the future holds for the Shire. Subscribe to League of Inches for more NRL season reviews, news, opinions and footy debate!
