Playing teams after their bye

Posted by Jim Muir on February 10, 2025 at 12:25pm

Hello

I thought the Eels had a particularly bad / unfair ? schedule of games against teams coming off the bye last season. Does anyone know what the situation is this season?

Particularly in the latter part of the season when players are carrying niggling injuries the week off between games is a real benefit and we were on the receiving end a hell of a lot of times last year.
