Round 10: St. George Illawarra v Newcastle

This makes no sense. Just like you can't take SOO off NSW or QLD, you can't take the Dragons v Roosters game off the Dragons (or Roosters). It's not "an Anzac day game". It is "the Dragons v Roosters Anzac day game". These 2 teams are constitutive of the occassion.
I get your point Puff, but the NRL can then announce another 2 teams in the premier timeslot and have us play on another day that isnt ANZAC day.

They could also put Victoria against WA in the current SOO timeslot. The Anzac Day game just is Dragons v Roosters. It's not like there is an abstract Anzac slot that they look for teams to fill.

The game is now managed by TV rights, if the media decides that the Dragons v Roosters game is providing a very poor spectacle, which it is, then I guarantee you we will be moved, and it will have NRL backing.

I am extremely confident that Dragons v Roosters will be on at 4 O'Clock at Allianz next year. I am willing to bet a large sum of money on it.
