ROUND EIGHT
Melbourne Storm v Sydney Roosters, AAMI Park (Nine/Fox), Thursday July 2
These two never disappoint, so expect another tight epic. Will fans be allowed to watch it live at AAMI Park though with COVID19 restrictions easing?
Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles v Newcastle Knights, Central Coast Stadium (Nine/Fox), Sunday July 5
While this is technically a Manly home game, the Knights won’t feel out of place playing on the Central Coast. Manly should be in and around the finals, but who knows if Newcastle will be better than last year? If they want to be a serious finals contender, they need to win this one.
