The 2025 NRL season is rolling on, but clubs are already well into planning out their 2026 moves.
With contract spots being snapped up and players confirming whether they will stay at their current club or head elsewhere, Zero Tackle have run the rule over every team’s current state of play.
This will be continually updated as player signings are confirmed – note, it will not be updated on rumours, but only confirmed signings.
There are 87 spots available in the Top 30s heading into next year, while most clubs have still yet to formally announce their development player lists.
