NRL line-ups revealed for Round 15

All 16 NRL clubs have all confirmed their 21-man squads for this weekend’s Round 15 action.

Penrith were dethroned from the top of the table last week after suffering successive defeats for the first time since August 2019.

They were just edged out 19-18 by Cronulla, with Shaun Johnson’s drop goal two minutes from time proving enough to earn the Sharks their fifth win of the season and keep them in the top eight picture.

Melbourne’s 42-16 triumph over the Warriors moved them above the Panthers into first, while Parramatta, South Sydney and Sydney all claimed victories to keep pressure on the leaders.

At the other end of the table, Gold Coast, Wests, Newcastle and Brisbane all suffered defeat, however there was a shock win for Canterbury on Monday, as they beat St George 28-6.

This week’s round is kicked off by the Rabbitohs visiting the Broncos at Suncorp on Thursday at 10:50am (UK time).
