This episode recaps the latest NRL trials from a SuperCoach 2026 perspective, headlined by Hakeem Haas’ dominant performance and what it could mean for his role, minutes, and scoring ceiling this season.

We also break down Makasini’s standout showing, Herbie Farnworth’s quieter performance, and the key takeaways that could influence team structure heading into Round 1. As always with trials, context matters, so we focus on what could translate into the season and what may simply be noise.

This episode is part of The Seven Tackle Set, the NRL SuperCoach podcast from SuperCoach Insight, formerly Insight Fantasy Sports.
