3 home games in the first half of the season. Would we have requested that due to Wollongong?

Anyway. The Premiers are a travelling show early on next year. No doubt the opening game against the Titans is a strategic move by the NRL against AFL, but when was the last time that the defending premier didn't play the opening game of the season at home against an opponent of their choice?

Skilled Park basically is one of our home grounds :crazy:

[Panther_Daz]

Why do we have to play in Townsville and Melbourne in 2 straight rounds?!?! I was planning on going to both...

 

[zombie jesus]

Quite possible we won't play at Brookvale until round 6, maybe 7 if we take our Warriors game somewhere.

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

Interesting draw. WTF is with st george playing away they have kogarah as well as the gong.

 

[Marshall_magic]

Dragons have FOUR STRAIGHT AWAY GAMES to start the season ... and 6 of the first 7 are away.

At least they get to start the season off in front of crowds over 16000.

 

[Deacon]

Im guessing 2011 wont be a 50/50 split between Kogarah and the Gong I think Win Stadium will be to be ready intime for a few games albeit, with a partially opened western grandstand

The Storm had to play the Sharks Round 1 this year at Toyota Stadium.

The Storm had to play the Sharks Round 1 this year at Toyota Stadium.

Last year Manly played the Dogs at ANZ Stadium in round 1.

It's right at the time Campese should be back too...

 

[Jason Maher]

Our home games are back-ended to give the work on the Western Grandstand at the Gong the maximum time to be ready. If worse comes to worse, then we could always move the Knights and Sharks games to Kogarah, and take the Bunnies and Roosters games to the SCG.

 

[skeepe]

Once again the Raiders get royally screwed with the byes.

The only team to have their byes spread over just 4 weeks (bye, game, game, bye) and also the only team not to have a single pre-Origin bye.

Thanks NRL. f**k knuckles.

 

[_Johnsy]

Did your club request a pre origin bye skeepe ?

Depending on injuries it could be a great time to have them, Raiders fans really are an optimistic bunch.

We will definitely be missing our two starting props for Origin, and could possible have Dugan, Croker and Vidot missing (depending on form of course).

How on Earth is having two byes that are both on weekends immediately AFTER Origin (ie, when all players are back on deck) helpful in any way whatsoever?
