Bolters: Sutherland (2 finals in 10 years, 6 Greenies and 4 graders back); Sydney University (1 finals in 10 years, 4 Greenies and 1 graders back).

Usual finalists the numbers have outside: Gordon (33%, 8 known players back); St George (15%, 5 known players back). Two thirds of every side is new each year, and a club with a strong junior programme can refill from players this site has not yet seen at that level.

Northern District is rated on its named squad of 12 (GS NDs), not on last season's players.

Blacktown is rated on its named squad of 10 (GS Blacktown), not on last season's players. Too few to field a side, so the places still to be named are rated as typical Greenies.

Sydney University is rated on its named squad of 15 (GS Syd Uni), not on last season's players.

UNSW is rated on its named squad of 8 (GS UNSWs), not on last season's players. Too few to field a side, so the places still to be named are rated as typical Greenies.

Bankstown is rated on its named squad of 8 (GS Bankstown), not on last season's players. Too few to field a side, so the places still to be named are rated as typical Greenies.

Fairfield-Liverpool is rated on its named squad of 15 (GS Fairfiled), not on last season's players.

St George is rated on its named squad of 5 (GS St George), not on last season's players. Too few to field a side, so the places still to be named are rated as typical Greenies.

Tyson Jansz has moved from Eastern Suburbs to Fairfield-Liverpool, and is no longer counted for Eastern Suburbs.

Max Irvine Feeney has moved from UTS North Sydney to Sydney University, and is no longer counted for UTS North Sydney.

Finals

  • Quarter Finals — Tue 19 Jan
  • Semi-finals — Thu 21 Jan
  • Final — Sun 24 Jan

Squads are named in December, so this reads the players each club is known to still have: anyone born on or after 1 Sep 2010 who played 2025/26 Green Shield or men's grade for the club, plus anyone named in a squad on the by district page. Places nobody known is in line for are filled at 25, the typical 2025/26 Greenie. A player whose age we only know as "16 or under last season" is left out, so a club's core can be larger than shown. Finals chances come from playing the draw out 10,000 times, ties split at random; there is no home-ground allowance.
