2018 Draw

[thorson1987]

So tigers in Rd 2 and again Rd 5.

Yet first game against Parra is Rd 23 and Penrith Rd 25.

So f**king stupid.

NRL press release mentions games in every mainland capital, I got all excited that a game was coming back to Adelaide...no.
Obviously 20,000+ paying fans (at $30 ticket) doesn't make sense.

I'm pretty happy with Souths Draw. The best we've had for a few years.

Parra ripped off getting Knights twice over Origin instead of the Storm like we've had over the past couple of years...

A quick glance at the Roosters' draw download on their website indicates one of their 11 Allianz home games will be reallocated to Adelaide. I presume they are waiting for clear air upon the AFL draw release next week.

The Roosters have said they are taking a game to Adelaide, the reason why that game hasn't been announced yet is that the AFL draw hasn't been released yet so the availability of Adelaide Oval is unknown at the moment.

Better not be the f**king Storm game again.

The draw is actually worse for NQ than this year for a crowd perspective.

Saturday games are our preferred slot.

So we get 2 friday 6pm games, and only 5 Saturday home games and our biggest drawcard is on a Thursday night again.

The NRL just doesnt help itself, I can see NQ dropping below a 15k average with this draw.

 

[malleekid]

And the NQ Bris derby in Tville is a Thursday night again....

f**k you NRL.

Terrible isn't. What were they thinking after last years Thursday night Derby sellout..

People from out of town were f**king ropeable about it, go and do 5mins of research you clown.

Wouldn't surprise me if it is. Same sort of timing as this year, currently scheduled for Round 16 at Allianz.

 

[Clifferd]

It would be an advantage playing them so close together,especially if the return game is at the Tigers home ground.

I actually think it's better playing the top teams at the start of the year anyway while they are still rusty

Gets us better prepared afterwards aswell. Just hopeful we can snag a couple wins otherwise Cleary will be under the pump early lol

No offense but 1700km is hardly a local derby

 

[Vee]

Cowboys have 3 home games in a row at one point, all in the first 2 months of the year.

f**king idiots.

What part of the Cyclone/Wet Season do these numpties not understand?

 

[Valheru]

Better not be the f**king Storm game again.

I can see it being the one earmarked as the one to go. The only other one that makes sense is Cowboys which is a Saturday night.

mate, John Nash couldn't work out a draw everyone was happy with, there's just too many permutations.

You guys do get to play us without origin players so the end of the streak may be nigh. That's if it doesn't end in round 1 which is a possibility.

Who said it was a ‘local’ derby?
