But it’s hard to go past the Bulldogs-Sea Eagles showdown in Brookvale on Saturday afternoon as the game with the most intriguing sub-plots.

Ciraldo, long regarded as the best up-and-coming coach in the NRL, will get his first chance to show what he has done with a vastly improved Canterbury side that will include two-time premiership-winner Viliame Kikau and former Parramatta hooker Reed Mahoney.

Seibold, who could be announced as Des Hasler’s successor at Manly in the next few days, will complete his NRL resurrection when he takes control of the Sea Eagles side.

Manly will welcome back superstar fullback Tom Trbojevic, who hasn’t played in the NRL since injuring his shoulder against Parramatta back in round 11 (May 20) this year.

Josh Schuster is expected to start the season in the No.6 jersey alongside skipper Daly Cherry-Evans in the halves following the departure of veteran Kieran Foran to the Titans. The Sea Eagles have also lost Dylan Walker (Warriors), Marty Taupau (off contract) and Andrew Davey (Bulldogs).

Like the way they call it 'Brookvale Oval' :)
(And we definitely have amends to make after the last time we began a season with a shiny new coach and a Round 1 game v Dogs at Brookie...)

I don't understand why the NRL has scheduled the 'Fins first home match to be at Suncorp rather than their local patch. Yes, Suncorp can attract a larger crowd but surely the 'Fins deserve help from the NRL to be competitive on the field, and to reap the financial rewards the crowd would have contributed at the Leagues Club post-match.
