# NRL 2001

Die NRL 2001 war die vierte Saison der National Rugby League, der australisch-neuseeländischen Rugby-League-Meisterschaft. Die Saison 2001 war die erste Saison, in der keine Teams hinzukamen, ausschieden oder fusionierten. Die einzige Änderung bestand darin, dass die Auckland Warriors ihren Namen in New Zealand Warriors änderten. Den ersten Tabellenplatz nach Ende der regulären Saison belegten die Parramatta Eels. Diese verloren im Finale 24:30 gegen die Newcastle Knights, die damit zum ersten Mal die NRL gewannen.
