Changes to opening five rounds
The 2012 Heritage Round (Round 5) will now feature a Super Saturday night in Sydney while Round 2 will showcase a Sunday night clash between the Storm and Rabbitohs following changes to the schedule for the first five rounds of the 2012 Telstra Premiership.
The Round 5 changes see the Panthers against the Sharks at Centrebet Stadium at 5:30pm on Saturday, March 31, followed by the Eels against the Sea Eagles at Parramatta Stadium and the Roosters against the Warriors at the SFS, both at 7:30pm.
The Raiders, who were originally scheduled to play the Cowboys at Canberra Stadium on March 31 at 5:30pm, will now move to 7:00pm Monday on April 2.
It is important to note also that the Panthers v Sharks game has moved to 5:30pm (previously released at 7:30pm).
In Round 2, the Storm-Rabbitohs clash, originally set for 5:30pm Saturday, March 10, will now be played at 7:00pm on Sunday, March 11 as part of a Sunday triple-header, while the Gold Coast Titans-Canberra Raiders match on Saturday, March 10, will now kick-off two hours earlier, at 4:30pm (5:30pm NSW time).
The changes have been made due to the result of venue availability in Melbourne in Round 2 and Canberra in Round 5.
The NRL apologises for any confusion caused by the changes which have proven inevitable given Stadium commitments.
