Nope that’s still at least a year and a bit away

It’s hilarious watching people carry on about easy and hard draws as soon as it comes out and get so bent out of shape about it

Team performance varies from year to year, this time last year Broncos were considered tough and Dogs easy, how did that end up playing out

Meh, don’t see why they’d go Christchurch then, have it in Auckland or Wellington and give it to Chch when the stadium is ready

Did Wellington get a game last year ? If so how was the crowd ?

Guess they are trying to build on Christchurch selling out pre season, round 3 and then the test match and keep that momentum going potentially. I’ll have to get in quick for the tickets as my lad will be super keen

Don’t think Wellington has had one since round one last year, before the Wahs bandwagon really got rolling. I think they got around 16K. Would think they’d get more on Anzac Day.

Seems weird to have a big round game at a smaller stadium. But, I wonder if that is reflective of the fact a sellout in Chch is a genuine full price sellout whereas Mt Smart has price point sellouts where people don't turn up on the day?

The 03 is currently the hottest region for RL. I also hope the Kiwis do more tests in Christchurch, as it will be full witha Kiwi fans.

Raiders (9)
Tigers (17)
Broncos (12)
Dragons (11)
Dolphins (10)
Titans (14)
Manly (7)
Knights (8)

Teams we play once:
Rabbits (16)
Panthers (2)
Sharks (4)
Bulldogs (6)
Eels (15)
Roosters (3)
Storm (1)
Cowboys (5)

I know last year's ladder has little to do with the next, but it reflects a nicer draw for us, but no idea how they do the draw plan, with us only playing 2 tops 8 teams from last year twice.
But this always means little in the past for us.
We also just playing anyone on ANZAC day now?
