SuperCoach Finals is an online NRL fantasy football game for the NRL football season finals.

SuperCoach Finals asks players to take the role of coach and selector by choosing the ultimate team from Australia's best football players in the NRL Finals Series. Working within a salary cap of $1.4 million, participants select a squad of 7 players each week.

The real-life performance of the players selected determines the participant's tally of points. Participants choose a new squad each week according to which NRL teams remain in the finals race. SuperCoach Finals players may also elect to play against other people by creating and joining a private league or by being placed in a public league.

SuperCoach Finals is run by thetelegraph.com.au, The Daily Telegraph and The Sunday Telegraph newspapers in New South Wales, Australia. SuperCoach Finals is also available in Queensland at the Courier Mail, Gold Coast Bulletin and Townsville Bulletin.
