There is no more important position in rugby league than the halfback.
The difference between an average, or even good halfback and an elite halfback but create a massive gap between sides.
This is going to be a difficult list to compile due to a number of top tier halfbacks having suffered long term injuries in 2024.
Please remember that this list is based purely on 2024 performances.
Below are the top ten halfbacks from 2024:
Honourable Mentions: Shaun Johnson, Jamal Fogarty
9. Kieran Foran
The Titans veteran turned back the clock in 2024 in leading the Titans with class.
He managed 21 games in 2024 for two tries, 15 try assists, 17 line-break assists, 10 forced dropouts, almost 300 kick metres per game and tackled at almost 85%.
Foran signed a well-earned extension for 2025.
Over the past four years Foran has played 25, 24, 20 and 21 games. Not bad for someone who is supposedly "injury prone".
