NRL SuperCoach 2026: CAPTAIN'S CORNER 🧢 Round 3

Welcome back to Captain’s Corner, where we break down the most important decision of your SuperCoach round... who gets the armband.

In Round 3, the focus shifts to beating the pack. We analyse which captaincy options are worth the investment, where you can safely follow the crowd, and where deviating could give you a real edge.

From high-floor guns to bold plays that could separate your rank, this episode helps you decide how to approach captaincy with purpose.

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