The number of rounds in the NRL (National Rugby League) season has varied over the years. In the 2020 NRL season, there were 20 rounds due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which shortened the season. Usually, the regular season is around 27 rounds long, with each team playing 24 matches each, but 2020 was an exception with a shortened 20-round season. For 2020 specifically, there were exactly 20 rounds in the NRL season.
