Looks like we should have the 2022 draw by next Sunday, according to the $hitney Morning Herald article which states "Under the agreement with the broadcasters, the governing body is committed to finishing the schedule by the last day of October."

Not sure how much interest it is too fans and the club, but hopefully we get Rd 2 at AAMI for Craig Bellamy 500th game as coach. I know it doesnt get as much plaudits as a players big milestone, but given its all with the one club and what he has done for our club, id really like to see this milestone be made a big deal of and celebrated, and to have it at home as the return game, i think would be better then a home game in Rd 1 without Munster, Cheese and Grant.

Storm's full 2022 draw is out. I'm happy with it apart from the number of Thursday matches and having to give up a home game to play the Panthers in Brisbane, is another kick in the guts for us Storm members in Vic!

6 Thursday games! Not impressed.
It's a joke that after how few games we have played at home in the last 2 years they have made Magic round a "home" game for us.
ALL the teams we only play once are from the bottom half of the table (except for the Titans who came 8th). So we play ALL the other top 7 teams twice!
While Justin Rodski might be pleased that we have 7 of our first 10 games at home, I'd much prefer them spread relatively evenly - playing 7 of our last ten away isn't a great run home.
But other than that it doesn't look too bad.

We must all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately
