This is just something I think of Ik it's to early but just something I do for fun.

Guessing who we're gonna verse in rnd 1 of next year.So far I've been correct on 2.Knowing our luck with the draw it'll probably be Melbourne again at commbank.

  • I say who ever wins the Grand final so saying that Canberra at Canberra 

    • 😂😂

  • Most likely Melbourne in Melbourne to continue their round 1 superiority.  A few teams can be ruled out if NRL are kind and don't give us Melbourne.

    It won't be the Vegas teams or Souths they wait to indigenous round for eels vs rabbits.  They will also check when old boys day for each club is.  I know we had Raiders old boys day and someone else this year.  We seem to get picked as opponents for old boys day quite a bit. 

    • Newcastle was the other game and your right we do cop those matches often as well as opposition Clubs fan / promotional days or Stadioum openings eg

      Vs Brisbane 1993 first game at ANZ ( QE11) 1993   ,  same year Vs Canterbury .. Mullticultrual Day , 1999 opening of Stadium Australia just to name just a few . We did win 2 of those 3 examples . 

  • I reckon we get a home game round 1. By then the NRL will realise the potential of a strong Parra side and will want us to get off to a great start.

  • Would have been good against Knights with Brown against his old team. But they'll be in Vegas. Won't be any of Vegas teams or Tigers as it's too close to Easter clash. So I'm going to say Manly for the rivalry. Just hope it's not the bye. 

    • Played Wests Tigers this year in Rd 2, prior to Easter Monday game. 

  • Melbourne, Broncos or Roosters away game

  • Home game v warriors 

  • We have the BYE, But RD 2 we play Panthers and Cleary will be rested in fear of cauliflower ear
