Anybody any idea when they are out. Don't want to renew my season ticket until I can cheack they don't clash with other commitments.

Last year announced on the 23rd Oct
Previous year 18th Oct

Both were Sunday's so possibly this weekend or next

I'll take a guess that they'll put us up against McGuire and HKR week one.

Clubs received the provisional set of fixtures on Monday to look through. Full fixtures announced 1st November.

we always seem to play HKR in the first couple of weeks.

Catalans away before end of March ☹️

Yeah probably

Probably the week after coming back from Australia if we play the WCC over there knowing the RFL.

We do, it's only a guess though because of the McGuire factor. Only teams you can rule out playing first ATM are Hull and Wigan because they're playing each other in Australia.

I can see our 1st game being Hull KR away on Sky to launch the new season. Champions V ex-Rhinos legend and all that

Magic Weekend already announced, in Newcastle again and we've got Cas again. Front loaded the Saturday, the Sunday looks pretty weak

Saturday May 19

Widnes Vikings v St Helens (15.00)

Wigan Warriors v Warrington Wolves (17.15)

Castleford Tigers v Leeds Rhinos (19.30)

Sunday May 20

Salford Red Devils v Catalans Dragons (13.00)

Wakefield Trinity v Huddersfield Giants (15.15)

Hull KR v Hull FC (17.30)

liking the saturday... i may go next year for the first time in a few.

I think it's about time that the Magic Weekend was a regular round instead of this contrived money grab. By all means have a magic weekend, but pick the round and have the games that you were due to have anyway.

Why they think hull derby will be a good match is beyond me. Hull fc will demolish kr. Surely pick the matches based on table position say 4 weeks before

I suppose the issue with that is that clubs then lose out on match day revenue of hosting that home game. Might not seem like much one single game if you look at it from a Salford vs Catalans perspective but whichever Hull team lost their home Hull derby would be missing out on easily their biggest crowd of the year. Likewise when we visit Cas it's one of their biggest games of the season.

You could financially compensate the designated home teams but then it wouldn't be the money grab if they're dishing out money to clubs for losing a home fixture.

Heard a rumour recently that we are going to play a number of fixtures at Elland Road next season whilst the build is taking place. Apparently the temporary stand on the north Stand won’t be up in time for the new season.

Also been told that we start away from home and then play Hull KR at Elland Road in round two before travelling to Melbourne for the WCC.
