2026 NRL Try Assists leaders

The last pass or kick that directly sets up a try. Try assists measure playmaking that does not show up in the scoring column: the pass that puts a winger through a gap counts the same as the try itself. Halves and fullbacks live at the top of this table. This page ranks players across the NRL for the 2026 season. Current leaders include Brian Kelly, Alex Johnston, Mark Nawaqanitawase.
