But instead, the Storm have made 11 changes to their side from last week, having already locked up a top four finish, while the Broncos have eight out through resting, injuries and suspension. “ has been very unpopular, as you’d imagine it would be in the NRL as well, but what it has done is softened the attitude of people because it has worked,” he said.
But after throwing to former rugby league hardman Mark Carroll, it might show what a hard sell it would be to add in the bye round.“They’ve had three byes this year, it’s unheard of. I don’t think we’ve ever had that. Should the NRL show the players the money for the minor premiership? Photo by Albert Perez/Getty Images, Bryan Fletcher argued: “It’s inevitable that the NRL will follow the AFL in the sense that we’ve got the concussion rule, we’ve got the stand-down protocol that’s 11 days, so I think it will come in, you’ll get a week off before the semi-finals.”
