Finally, the 2022 NRL draw is out. After an ever so slight delay, the fixtures were released this morning at 11am.

Like many others, I have already planned my away trips, secured my season tickets and am clock-watching for Round 1.

For a league fan such as myself every game is a must-watch. That said, some games stick out more than others.

Below are the ten that have me most excited and shape as can't miss matchups.

5. Round 3: South Sydney Rabbitohs vs Sydney Roosters

Friday, March 25 - 8:05pm (at Stadium Australia, Homebush)

I actively went looking for this matchup. As a neutral these games are very, very enjoyable.

The most bitter of rivals on and off the field, these clubs hate each other. Friday night, a big crowd at Stadium Australia. Sign me up!

Two genuine title threats again in 2021, this promises to be one of the early highlights of the season.

Luke Keary will be back, as too will be Latrell Mitchell. Everything about this contest screams unmissable!
