SOO to be played on Friday nights
And everyone gets three Byes
It's bad luck for Origin players who don't get a break at all (if they play in the 3 games) but then no club side is affected.
That is what i've been saying for ages mate. You could fill Sat and Sun withe other rep games. ie City v Country. (Real country players vs young up and comers in the NRL). QLD residents v NSW residents. NSW country v QLD country. NSW police v QLD police. PNG v Fiji. Samoa v Tonga. NZ north v NZ south. Victoria v WA. The list goes on and on. People would get into it i reckon.
No sport would want to go up against League on that weekend television wise. Ratings would be through the roof
