The Semi Final Draw

[Thirteen]

Can someone please tell me when 1 v 4 and 2 v 3 games are?
I can't find the draw anywhere

[Guest]

The NRL will release the draw after this weekend

With 4 Sydney games, there is likely to be clash for stadiums next week if the Swans lose to Hawthorn. There is talk about a double header at Allianz Stadium on Saturday with the Cronulla game at 4.30 and ours at 7.30. 1v 4 is looking likely for Friday night

While that is a possibility, the Roosters are already fighting this and are basically demanding a stand alone home game.

Can't be Mad Morley. We won't play a home semi away from the SFS.
But thanks for the info mate and thanks Muzza too.

There is no suggestion we will be. The talk is of our game at Allianz (SFS) on Saturday night

Oh sorry mate I read that as ANZ not Allianz.
I hate that fricken ANZ. Dreading going there on Friday. Even with an 80000 seat stadium we shit get a rubbish view from miles away.

I hope that is the case mate

I figured mate. I had to double check to see that hadnt typed ANZ instead. No dramas

This semi final draw is looking like a farce. It should already be finalised depending on what position teams finish on. I realise there might be stadium availability issues however if we finish first how can the NRL justify us playing on a sat night,giving teams 2 and 3 another days break, in a double header...what are they going to put sharks flags up all over our stadium then put Roosters flags up after there game? We will finish 1st or 2nd and deserve our own home game semi.

Might as well play the Sharks semi out of nib Stadium in Perth, it will be there next year anyways

i heard that regardless if we finish first or 2nd, they want the pin up boys souths to play fri night. joke if true.

Saturday suits me far better Too much rushing around on a Friday

[supermario]

Give souffs the friday game ! give us a longer turn around

[dj_sta]

I dont think Souths will get the Friday game if Swannies lose against Hawthorn this Friday. Coz then Swannies will play at ANZ on Friday which means we will get the Friday and Souths get the Saturday.
