Yeah my understanding is 9 get picks 1,2 and 4 and fox get the rest. They use pick 3 for the Monday night game

NRL are really ******* us over with scheduling. We have to play the bunnies in Rd 24 on a 5 day turnaround from the Monday night game against the Knights while the bunnies get a massive 9 day turn around after playing the Friday night,

Now they screw us further by making us play the Storm Monday night, they better give us a Sunday day game the last round or that will be two 5 day turnarounds in 3 weeks. It's disgraceful and could cost us wins

For the last round we can't play Friday now, and there's no Monday game, so it will be either Saturday or Sunday.

I wonder if the club are making any noise about the amount of Monday night games we get?

Really hope the Commission schedule the season in full next year, I've had a gutful of the current method of letting TV schedule each round.
