The RugbyLeagueZone NRL Injury List tracks every injured player across the competition throughout the 2026 season.
Our regularly updated casualty ward includes the latest injury news, recovery timelines and expected return dates for players from all 17 NRL clubs.
From short-term injuries and concussion protocols to long-term ACL recoveries, this page provides a complete overview of who is sidelined and when they could return to the field.
The injury toll remains a major storyline as clubs battle for finals positions, with several contenders still missing key players. Brisbane are sweating on the availability of veteran halfback Adam Reynolds, while the Broncos’ long-term concerns continue with Reece Walsh and Cory Paix sidelined for the remainder of the season. Melbourne’s casualty ward remains one of the most significant in the competition, with Harry Grant, Jahrome Hughes and Jack Howarth all working towards returns, while season-ending Achilles injuries to Xavier Coates and Will Warbrick continue to test the club’s depth.
Manly are eagerly awaiting the return of superstar fullback Tom Trbojevic from a hamstring injury, while Newcastle have important players in Bradman Best and Jacob Saifiti nearing comebacks. South Sydney remain without Latrell Mitchell as they look to finish the year on a positive note, and the Warriors are still managing long-term absences that include Roger Tuivasa-Sheck and Tanah Boyd.
The good news is that several big names are expected back over the next fortnight. Tom Trbojevic, Harry Grant, Bradman Best, James Tedesco and Latrell Mitchell are among the headline acts tracking towards returns, while clubs such as Canberra, North Queensland and Parramatta should also welcome back important reinforcements before the end of Round 26. With the finals approaching rapidly, these returning players could provide a timely boost during the run home.
