Teams
The lineup of teams remained unchanged for the 16th consecutive year. This became the second longest stretch of time (after 1947-1966 - 20 seasons) of a continuous line-up of teams in competition history (overtaking 1967-1981 - 15 seasons).
Pre-season
Pre-season matches were played between 12 February and 28 February 2022, before a 10-day lead up until the beginning of the regular season.[17] It featured nineteen matches across three weekends, including the 2022 All Stars match, which was won by the Māori All Stars 16 – 10,[18] and the annual Charity Shield match between the South Sydney Rabbitohs and St George Illawarra Dragons, which the Dragons won 16–10.[19] The Titans were scheduled to play the Warriors in their second trial match but the match got postponed and then cancelled due to floods in the area.
