Rounds 22-25 Draw. Round 25 Announced today

[brooksy19]

Too late in the day, I reckon it will be released tommorow as they are still figuring it out. Canberra v Cronulla would be the obvious choice. Cronulla can't make the 8 and Canberra won't and can't make the 4th or 5th IMO.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

Id say the monday game, if they dont scrap it, will be Canberra Vs Cronulla Cause the best Canberra will finish is probably 8th.

Dragons and Eels will have play on Sunday, as they play Monday the week before.

Wests Tigers/Newcastle will be Friday night game I reckon

 

[Hurriflatch]

This may have been mentioned but any chance of moving 4 v 5 from Friday Night to Saturday and playing 3 v 6 on Friday night??

not sure if that will fix and problems

Eels v Broncos could realistically end up being 4 v 5 so while it would be unfair to both clubs to play that on Monday night at least it will be equal

Eels v Broncos on Monday then playing again on Friday

 

[parramaniac2516]

While it may be possible for the Eels to drop i dont see the Broncos finishing 5th.

 

[Timmah]

They won't scrap MNF.

 

[The Engineers Room]

The other option is Sea Eagles Dragons for Monday Night.

7:30pm Fri Eels Broncos
7:30pm Fri Storm Titans
5:30pm Sat Raiders Sharks
7:30pm Sat Panthers Warriors
7:30pm Sat Cowboys Bulldogs
2:00pm Sun Rabbitohs Roosters
3:00pm Sun Tigers Knights
7:00pm Mon Sea Eagles Dragons

 

[SSFC Hitman]

Souths VS Roosters will be Friday IMO.

 

[Hurriflatch]

Eels won't get Friday as they played the previous Monday this has been statede numerous times

 

[King Tigerman]

they planning a double header in round 25
how the hell can telstra have 2 games in 1 day

 

[Timmah]

It can have two games on different days.

That's another stumbling block, they can't have SOU/SYD and WES/NEW on the same day.

Which game will be live in NSW?

 

[Hurriflatch]

hoping it's storm v eels but I'm thinking broncos v dogs will be live in both bris and sydney

 

[Hindyscrack]

That will be decided closer to the fixture

 

[Jobdog]

Just RE:round 25 fixtures. What about a double header at Telstra on either Friday night, or Sunday arvo - Rabbits vs Roosters followed by Tigers vs Knights. Prob won't happen, but thought I'd throw it out there

 

[mickdo]

Surely have to be Parra v Storm

 

[themanonthehill]

Must be a long meeting down at FOx
On 2GB at 100 the reporter said `NRL executives are just finalising the round 25 fixtures which will be out within the hour' or words to that effect. The sandwiches and cordial must have been good

 

[Timmah]

But...

 

[Hurriflatch]

it's Gallops birthday today (or this week at least) so the strippers haven't finished yet

Get it right, he's a lawyer. It's an 8 Ball and some call girls.
