Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Local time in Las Vegas.
  2. ^ Gilbert suffered a season-ending injury in Round 11. When available, vice captain Kaufusi thus filled in as captain for the rest of the season
  3. ^ Penrith's usual home ground, BlueBet Stadium, is not usable due to ongoing renovations
  4. ^ Murray suffered a season-ending injury in the pre-season. When available, Walker filled in as captain (8 games). In the absence of both Murray and Walker, Latrell Mitchell (7 games) or Jack Wighton (4) captained the side.
