NRL limit on contact training

Posted by Randy Handlinger on April 21, 2026 at 11:29am

"All 17 NRL clubs were informed on the eve of the season that their players are to engage in no more than 100 minutes on a regular seven-day turnaround." to limit brain injury....I think it includes wrestling. 

Was there previously an NRL limit? 100 min is less than I thought would be required

    This is only for in-season. I'd imagine that in-season they reduce the amount of contact they're doing compared to the pre-season to limit injuries.
