Dave Riccio with early rounds for Cronulla and Penrith:

I'm a bit surprised the Sharks will be at Pointsbet Round 2. I assumed the first few games would be away.

 

[Isaac A]

On nrl app the draw is already on there every round.

Full draw now available https://leagueunlimited.com/news/36735-2022-nrl-draw/

Oh wow, a decent draw for the Broncos for a change.

6 Storm home games in the first 9 rounds, guess it's good to get them out of the way in case we have another locked down winter.

Don’t even float that thought. Can’t do it all again!

Bit late on this (maybe) - Is Oz Stadium the new name for Stadium Australia?



EDIT: No, just either some lazy editing or trolling from PENRITH. Still Stadium Australia for now.

Or a making up for lost time - how many Storm matches were actually played in Melbourne over 2020 and 2021? Either way, a good move.

Are there records kept on the longest gap between two teams facing each other while still in the same competition? I reckon Raiders vs Tigers in round 1 2021 and round 25 2022 would come pretty close.

Protest

There isn’t 20 byes which means Issako and his rubbish still annoy me

 

[roboshark]

So many FTA games again for Brisbane

That would have to be a record unless the same thing happened in the old round 26 days

Ironically, we played Wests in round 2 2021 and won't play them again until round 23 2022

Bizarre

List of clubs by the amount of games against top 8 and top 8 sides from 2021 ordered highest to lowest in respect to games against top 8 teams

Broncos - 6 14
Eels - 8 13
Roosters - 8 13
Dogs - 7 13
Raiders - 7 13
Warriors - 7 12
Sharks - 6 12
Storm - 6 12
Penrith - 5 12
Manly - 4 12
Knights - 6 11
Tigers - 6 11
Dragons - 5 11
Souths - 5 11
Cowboys - 5 11
Titans - 5 10

Based on that metric, Parra and roosters with the toughest draw being the only teams to play every top 4 team twice. Storm also max out on potential top 4 opponents at 6 given they can't play themselves.

Souths have a very soft draw for a top 4 team.

Parra v PENRITH - Round 1 2002 and then Round 26 2003
