The 2026 Super League season approaches with key coaching changes and three new teams set to shake up the competition. Hull KR enters the campaign as favorites while fans prepare for 27 rounds culminating in the Grand Final at Old Trafford on October 2.

Warrington presents an intriguing coaching scenario with Sam Burgess remaining as head coach while former Catalans boss Steve McNamara joins as first-team coach. This unusual arrangement could either pay dividends or create disharmony as the Wolves look to bounce back from a disappointing 2025 season.

Paul Rowley faces a different challenge at St Helens, where success is expected rather than a bonus. Wigan's Matt Peet aims to end his trophy drought after previous championship success, while Bradford Bulls make a nostalgic return to the top flight, reigniting memories of 'Bullmania' from the league's early days.

Quick Fact: Super League features 27 rounds before the Grand Final.
