2014 NRL Draw

[Dogs Of War]

I hate that teams may play each other again within a month. Prefer that to be spread out so no closer than 7-8 weeks.

 

[Charlie124]

For the cows I want suncorp stadium v donkeys round 1. Then as many Saturday night 7:30 games as humanly possible.

 

[DeeJ]

I want the Broncos televised every single Friday night just to piss off everyone else. Even if they have the bye, channel 9 will go to a live feed of whatever activity they are partaking in.

 

[Dogs Of War]

Also generally try and get all the derby games in the first 6 rounds/last 6 rounds.

 

[Joker's Wild]

Why the f**k have they gone away from the Broncos v Cowboys Rd1 game?

It was becoming a real tradition and got the Broncos best home crowd of the year.

It's like someone in the NRL goes, "something's successful, lets bury it"

The Reds and the Roar have Suncorp booked for the opening weekend mate

Why? Aren't those generally the highest drawing/rating rounds of the year. I would have thought that the best way to maximise ratings and crowds would be to play those matches in the middle part of the year (Origin rounds excepted of course)

 

[God-King Dean]

I want to piss & moan about it on this forum when it's announced.

 

[gronkathon]

I guess value wise I want to double on on the games my membership gets reciprocal tickets to at ANZ.

Other then that i am not fussed

Censorship laws don't allow commercial tv stations to show live footage of gangbangs.

 

[Card Shark]

You're claiming that Broncos v anyone is going to draw 40k+?.

Never said that but continue to make things up as you please.

Some teams will draw just as big a crowd V the Broncos Rd 1, on TV & at the ground.

Agree.

Broncos v Dogs will be a great game to kick off the season in Bris.

A fair spread of Monday night football across all clubs as I really hate the concept.

Short turn arounds kept to a minimum and no long road trips in short turn around weeks

The Bronks get their games spread over the four days like every other club

And all clubs should have the ability to nominate two clubs they want to play twice based on the crowd pulling effect for their club

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

For Easts

All home games at the SFS
An away game in Brisbane
Not playing any team twice before playing other teams once
Playing all Sydney teams twice if possible. If not I would prefer Souths, Dogs, Manly, Wests, Parra and Dragons as the home games to maximise crowds.

As a general thing I'd like to see a spread of teams getting channel 9 games and MNF. Warriors and Canberra are never on 9 and Manly seem to be dumped in to MNF a lot. Change that. I think MNF should have a maximum amount of times a team can be given that slot.

 

[umina panther]

To play Parra 12 times in the first 12 rounds + 2 byes = the 28 points needed to make the finals. Then play the top 6 twice each to get some form

 

[Card Shark]

I'm pretty sure clubs nominate their preferred "play twice" opponents but the draw is so convoluted, it's not possible to please everyone.

 

[tumbidragon]

Dragons not to play the Raiders twice and gift them 4 points, and especially not at Canberra (not that It matters I spose...). More even spread of FTA coverage for ALL teams. Not just Broncos, Souffs and Bulldogs ffs.

 

[El Diablo]

i want to have the bye every week

 

[The Elephant In The room]

1 point each, and the game called off at 80 minutes, rather than going to golden point. Oh wait.....

Being the forum nazi - isn't the question being posed by this thread what's being discussed in THIS thread?

 

[Timmah]

Except it can't, as several posts in this thread have highlighted :lol:
