Round 13
- Heavy storms across areas of New South Wales affected games and attendances throughout the round. The Friday night match at Telstra Stadium was played in a constant, heavy shower of rain. The match played in Newcastle was under threat of cancellation for much of Sunday morning after 300mm of rain had fallen in the area within four days. Many lower grade NSWRL matches were postponed to preserve grounds for first grade matches.
- The Canberra Raiders scored four tries in the opening 12 minutes on their way to a 38-10 win over the Parramatta Eels.
- The last-placed Sydney Roosters achieved their highest score since 1935 in their 64-30 win over the North Queensland Cowboys.
- In the New Zealand Warriors' 300th game, the Warriors suffered their sixth straight loss, losing 4-2 against competition leaders the Melbourne Storm. The scoreline was 2-0 to New Zealand until the 72nd minute, when a decisive try sealed the match for Melbourne. It was the lowest aggregate score (six points total) since 1993.
