With the 2024 NRL season fixtures revealed on Monday morning, the anticipation for the upcoming season can begin to build.
From the first round trip to Las Vegas, to a grand final rematch in Round 3, chances for players to visit their old stomping grounds and blockbusters from one end of the season to the other, there will be a reason to tune into most matches throughout the season.
But Zero Tackle have picked the ten you should be locking into your calendar now.
Here are the matches you can't afford to miss in 2024.
6. South Sydney Rabbitohs vs North Queensland Cowboys, Round 11
When: Saturday, May 18, 7:45pm (AEST)
Where: Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane
Magic Round often throws up some excellent rugby league, and 2024 should be no different.
The Saturday prime time clash pits the Rabbitohs and Cowboys against each other, and while, on 2023 form, this looks like a game that might not be all that appealing, there could be some serious storylines developing by now.
Jason Demetriou and Todd Payten's jobs could be among them if both sides start the season slowly, but this is a contest between two of 2023s most disappointing sides. Don't be surprised if Magic Round is moving time for both.
