NRL Round 19 Results & Stats Summary
Here are the main stats from the latest round of NRL that can be used to solve arguments, impress that person on the train you’ve been eyeing off for months, or slowing the rise of petrol prices.
STAT OF THE ROUND
- Cronulla have won the mini comp of match results during Origin period, with a record of W5 L1 with two byes. One of Cronulla’s wins were against the Broncos who had the worst Origin period record this season, and the only winless team with L5 and three byes. For the record Penrith’s record was W3 L2 and three byes.
GOOD RUNS CONTINUE
- Warriors have won 10 of the last 11 v Wests Tigers.
- Warriors have won the last 6 matches v Wests Tigers as the away side.
- Cronulla are W6 L1 on a Saturday away to Qld teams since 2020.
- Going back to 2014 the Raiders have won 7 of their 9 games at the Olympic Stadium. One was a Grand Final loss.
- Roosters have won eight in a row v Parramatta at the Sydney Football Stadium, with a last loss in 2008.

- Melbourne at AAMI Park v Qld sides have won 18 of the 19 games.
BAD LUCK STREAK CONTINUES
- Wests Tigers have won just three of their last 22 matches at Campbelltown v all sides since 2021. Wests Tigers have also lost 10 in a row at Campbelltown on a Friday and last won in 2010.
- The Dolphins have lost both games at Redcliffe this season, by a combined 18-118 or a combined deficit of 100 points.
- Parramatta have lost 10 in a row away to Sydney teams. Parramatta have won just one of their last 11 away to Sydney teams on a Saturday. Parramatta have also lost their last 10 games away on a Saturday to all teams.
- Gold Coast have won just two of their last 20 Sunday games v any team. Gold Coast have won one of their last 12 away from home on a Sunday v any team.
BREAKTHROUGH
- South Sydney broke a run of four straight losses to Newcastle.
- Before winning this weekend, North Queensland had lost all three Sunday away games this season.
IT WAS GOOD WHILE IT LASTED
- the Dolphins have now been held to nil for the first time since joining the competition in 2023.
- Manly have won 6 games in a row at home to Qld sides.
TEAMS THAT CAN’T WIN THE PREMIERSHIP
- Gold Coast conceded 50 points in Round 1 v Cronulla. And Gold Coast sides don’t win things.
- Parramatta conceded 50+ points twice. Once v Melbourne in Round 1, then against Gold Coast in Round 6.
- Dolphins – conceded 50 points v Manly in Round 5. Conceded even more v Cronulla in Round 19.
- Melbourne Storm – conceded 50 points v Penrith in Round 5.
- St George Illawarra – lost 11 in a row to start season – sacked coach – lost next game conceding 62 points – and only won in Round 13. Even winning their last ten games isn’t enough to make the 50% win rate needed to make finals.
- Wests Tigers can’t win the premiership after conceding 52 points against Cronulla in Round 9. And plenty more v Penrith in Round 15.
- Bulldogs – can beat Penrith, can’t beat two teams with a combined injury toll of 27 players over two rounds.
- Broncos – no team has lost six games in a row in a season and won the Premiership. Melbourne lost five in a row in 2012 and still won the title.

All New 2026 Gurgler NRL Player Ratings
For a while now The Gurgler has been developing a Player Rating system for each NRL match, so why not test it now after one of the biggest games of the season.
We use stats and zero slats to determine a score out of ten for each player. The stats and weighting of stats change per position to make it fair. And worth noting that to get a 10/10 you have to be almost perfect in every way. A full explanation on the stats and weighting is at the end.
It will be different to our Team of the Week/Season as it is using different stats and weightings.
