List of NSWRL/ARL/SL/NRL premiership captains and coaches

This is a list of captains and coaches of National Rugby League premiership winning teams, as well as its predecessors NSWRL, ARL and Super League. Ken Kearney has captained the most premierships with six, all at St. George,[1] while Arthur Halloway has coached the most premierships with eight, four at Eastern Suburbs and four at Balmain.[2]

In the early years, quite a few teams had captain-coaches who would play and coach at the same time. In this list, they are counted as both the captain and the coach.
