This video covers our early “My Guys” for NRL SuperCoach 2026, the players we keep coming back to this preseason. These are the picks we’re most confident in based on role, minutes, price, and team context, even before trials and Round 1 teams are locked in.

We break down why these players stand out, what we love about their situations, and what could still change as the preseason unfolds. This isn’t about locks or guarantees, it’s about conviction, comfort, and the players we’re happiest to build around early.

This episode is part of The Seven Tackle Set, the NRL SuperCoach podcast by SuperCoach Insight.
