2025 NRL Season — Final Regular-Season Ladder
Final ladder after the 24-round regular season (before finals). Competition points run 6 higher than the simple 2-points-per-win calculation for every club — this is the 17-team, 24-game draw's bye-round points (2 points per bye, 3 byes per club), not an error; confirmed against the same pattern in the 2024 ladder.
