General 2022 Schedule

[Cces]

I'm well aware that the 2022 draw won't be announced for quite some time but does anyone know how randomized the draw is each year? We played the Panthers, Rabbits, Roosters, Eels, Broncos & Bulldogs just once each this season so do we automatically play then twice in 2022? Throw in the fact that there's only been 1 season (excluding 2020's reduced schedule) in the last 18 that we haven't played the Storm twice we could be set for a horrendous fixture list in 2022

As long as the Storm are our Anzac day opponents the chance of playing them twice is high.

The process behind the draw

They're the Canadian company behind some of the biggest world sporting organisations’ schedules and their software has been working overtime to finish the draw.

Pretty sure it depends on your final placing as to how the draw is decided(in terms of who you play twice). Then I believe there are special considerations of club requests eg in our case the ANZAC Storm game
