Friday going off the nrl website link bellow. Not happy as i have to work that night.... http://www.nrl.com/TelstraPremiership/FinalsSeriesInformation/tabid/10894/Default.aspx
What a load of crap--broncos at home next weekend then storm get a home,or ethiad, the following week.....it is really fair being a Sydney team
After the first week the rules haven't changed. The Prelim has always been held at either SFS, ANZ, Suncorp or AAMI / Etihad. If the game was Canberra vs Newcastle it would be at SFS. That is the way week 3 works. The game is played at the best possible ground for that state. Another example is if the 2 hosts were Cowboys and Broncos, both games would be at Suncorp. We are lucky if we get Brisbane as we'll once again outnumber the opposition. I think the bigger problem will be the fact it is a Friday. We'll get the bad numbers again. However, it will be earlier which is an advantage. That answers your question Mybludog btw: Friday 23rd September.
Yea, it looks like, for 2011 Finals Week 3: Premiership: Manly Sea Eagles (W2) v Broncos/Dragons Friday, September 23 @ Stadium Australia or Sydney Football Stadium Friday is a bummer on one hand cuz harder to get off work and get there. On the other my work atm is kinda encouraging us to use annual leave / rdo hours, so I'll suss it out. That's also the start of 2 weeks of NSW School Holidays. What time would such a match be, around the usual Fri night 7:30-7:45 kickoff? I'd prob prefer SFS cuz there's a few more "normal" type pubs nearby, and besides, Manly will be playing @ Stadium Australia the next weekend..
The game WILL be Friday night the 23rd September, not sure on start time but I'd say 7.30pm for about a 7.45pm kick off. BY the way the MWTS will be getting an allocation of seats together, like we did for Saturday night.
