    Based on last year's form:

    • No real hard stretches that scare me
    • Plenty of home games
    • Pretty friendly re interstate travel
    • Play the teams 1 & 2 twice however only have teams 3 & 4 once

    Better than what we usually get given

  • Whilst it isn't a terrible draw I don't think it is as easy as people think. The eels play 13 games against top  8 teams from this year,  no other club plays more, we have tough away games in the first 4 rounds against the storm and manly plus a home game against arch rivals the dogs who are on the cusp of signing ben hunt. We also have a tough run at the back end of the season. 

    I rate it 7 out of 10

    • Lot of talk about Eels playing 13 games against top 8 teams of this year. Let's be honest, of the top 8 teams of this year, Panthers/Storm/Roosters were miles ahead. The other 5 were average at best (lucky even) and the Roosters will be interesting given how many players have left or still injured for a good half of the season. 

  • 7/10

  • The first month is tough. Having back to back home games only twice is tough also.
