Few rumblings on social media that we will play the Broncos in Round 1 next year, Friday night at Suncorp Stadium
Full draw is out on Thursday apparently
Anyone else heard of any potential draw leaks involving us?
EDITED: Initial leak suggested the game was at BankWest Stadium, it's at Suncorp Stadium.

Should we start the rumour the Eels are chasing him brissy? lol
Mahoney and Turpin = *droole*
I'm sure the NRL are keen on Broncos v Titans game at suncorp given the way the Titans have recruited
I'm sure they would be, but if I'm Andrew Abdo I'd want that game the week before Origin 1 selection
that is week two - 1st home game for the donkeys
The 'rona will be back next year when it cools down. The draw will likely change once it spreads again.
And Sutton is the referee
His dumbass brother isn't the boss anymore, I wouldn't expect him to get as many big games as he did last year.
Hopefully he drops a few spots in the ref hierarchy too.
How many Thursday night games will Channel 9 load us with and no Sunday games at home.
We rate our heads off
The Parramatta Eels have won the title as the season’s most watched NRL club on Fox Sports and Kayo.
The Eels had an average audience of 378,000 — more viewers than any of their NRL or AFL rivals thanks to their fanatical blue and gold army in Sydney’s west — up 10 per cent on last year. OzTAM ratings also reveal Parramatta as the most watched football team in any code on pay TV and free-to-air TV.
“Having an average of 378,000 viewers on Fox and Kayo each week is a phenomenal result and a testament to our members and fans who support our club with pride,” Eels chief executive Jim Sarantinos said. “It’s also a terrific outcome for our sponsors. We are by no means done and plan to build in 2021.”
Melbourne Storm came in second on 360,000, with Sunday’s opponents Penrith eighth with 330,000. The Gold Coast Titans and the New Zealand Warriors finished equal-last with an average of 271,000 viewers.
The round-six Roosters v Eels game was the most watched pay TV game, with an average audience of 507,000. The second-highest was Sonny Bill Williams’ comeback for the Roosters against the Raiders on a Saturday night in round 17.
