After certain sides served up certified stinkers (cough Cowboys cough) last start, we are all but certain some coaches are going to take drastic action and severely swing the axe.

That means team lists might look a little different this week than they did seven days ago. With that in mind, we’re ready to roll out our NRL Round 23 predicted teams. 

So, whether you’re looking to update your fantasy team, craft a multi, or preparing for your work tipping comp, a bit of inside info on potential personnel never goes astray.

In the hopes of providing a sneak peek to punters, we’ve put together a predicted lineup for all 16 teams featuring this week. Check out our NRL Round 23 predicted teams below.
