They each have a different story, but one common thread unites every one of these NRL players with a point to prove in 2021.

Broncos The first three weeks of the season will be tough without the suspended Payne Haas but even when the Origin prop returns the Broncos still look undermanned upfront with David Fifita and Joe Ofahengaue moving on. The wooden spooners need young bucks Thomas Flegler and Patrick Carrigan to go to another level in 2021 and veteran Alex Glenn to stay injury-free and defy Father Time if new coach Kevin Walters is to restore pride at Red Hill. Behind the scenes with Tedesco, Sergis and little l...

The future of Broncos veteran Andrew McCullough has almost been settled but his eight-game stint at the Knights last year has left a lasting impression on Jayden Brailey. McCullough returned to the Broncos in November as part of an agreement between the two clubs and ahead of Braileys return from an ACL injury this season.  McCullough was an astute signing as a replacement for Brailey midway through the year, but he soon joined the Knights rake on the sidelines following a season-ending hamstr...

In the wake of Penrith’s decision to hand Nathan Cleary and Isaah Yeo a set of keys each for 2021, the question beckons as to whether two heads are better than one when it comes to captaincy or is the increasingly popular leadership group the way to go?

KFC SuperCoach insider: Charlie "Forbes Ferrari" Staines is the most popular player in the game. If he can deliver even half of his 2020...

Kristin Scott has appeared ring-free in an Instagram story, prompting rumours her engagement to embattled NRL star Mitchell Pearce is now on the rocks. The glamour couple were scheduled to tie the knot at a lavish ceremony in front of 150 guests on December 29 last year, but the wedding was called off at the last minute after the 31-year-old halfback was caught up in a sexting scandal. Pearce sent flirty text messages to a young female staffer at the Newcastle Knights in an off season controver...

Blake Green was supposed to be a Bulldog this year but an untimely ruptured ACL has meant he instead stayed at Newcastle, got added to the leadership group and is now on track to miss only a minimal amount of football. Green suffered the injury in round 15 against the Cowboys in just his third game for the club following a mid-year switch from the Warriors. Already doing plenty of running, Green is about three weeks away from ramping up his testing at the six-month mark, which falls on February...
