Watch PREM Rugby 2026/27 live streams
Northampton look well capable of becoming the first team since the 2018/19 Saracens to win back-to-back PREM Rugby titles, but a lot of that depends on how they respond to the departure of former captain George Furbank.
Henry Pollock is a handful at the best of times, and the armband has been entrusted to Fraser Dingwall. The Saints attack was irresistible last season but defensive frailties meant they didn't blow opponents away as often as they perhaps should have.
Bath, Exeter and Sale look like Northampton's likeliest rivals from PREM Rugby honours. With Finn Russell and Ben Spencer pulling the strings, Bath had look on course for a title showdown with the Saints, only to tighten up at the business end of the season, and they've since parted ways with the influential Thomas du Toit and Alfie Barbeary.
Few had expected the Chiefs' rebuild to go quite as well as it did, and the trouble now is that they'll no longer be underestimated. Exeter eliminated then-reigning champions Bath en route to the final, where they pushed the Saints right to the wire. Inefficiencies in attack, however, were a running theme.
The Sharks, meanwhile, are coming off an awful campaign during which they won five games and lost 13. The rebuild, however, is shaping up spectacularly. Courtney Lawes, Joe Marchant and Alex Lozowski are three of biggest names in through the door, and they'll need to settle in quickly to resurrect an outfit that conceded 90 tries and went 1-8 on the road last season.
