Seems a late start to the season?

 

[The Innovator]

That is a week later than normal. Tough start playing the Warriors first up away.

 

[EB18]

Is there 25 or 26 rds next year?

 

[Roll the Bones]

Already bracing myself for the media wankery over the rorters souffs game at the scg.

6:30pm sunday game. Wonder if that's a one-off or possibly a regular thing.

 

[Mr Invisible]

So the Eels lose their first of 26 games to the Panthers. Interesting.

They usually do the 6:30 Sunday game for the first month of the season instead of the 2:30 game because it’s too hot.

[magdog]

At least it’s not Melbourne first up...again

 

[Raysie]

Fuck yes!

 

[berries1935]

not a bad game to start, the warriors will have a later off season start with the kiwis going to the UK for a tour

 

[_G-Dog_]

Lol.... we’ve had a good draw the last two years at least.

We had the most 5day turn around games last year..

Few good points made.. Could be a great way to start the season depending on who we get in rnd 2.

 

[MIR-PROD]

Lol.... we’ve had a good draw the last two years at least.

What? We played Storm, Rabbits, Broncos at Suncorp and Raiders in Canberra, Panthers twice and Roosters twice within the first 10 weeks. The 2nd half of the season was easier but the start was a very tough draw for us

How can the draw be fair.

Broncos will be most Thursday & Friday night games.

How the fuck do they do the draw.

It should be computer generated by an independent company.
