The NRL Telstra Premiership draw for 2018 has been revealed, and footy fans on Twitter have had their say on it. Here's a collection of the early responses.
You can't please everyone, but personally, I'm very happy with our draw. Very kids friendly which promotes our next generation of fans.

Credit where it is due. On the surface the tweaks and changes to the #NRL Draw most welcome, and probably the best offering for long time.

Well done Souths. Much improved outcome after the last couple of seasons. Up to us members to get out there now and support the team.

Overall, I think @storm have faired reasonably well with the 2018 #NRLDraw. The club is to be commended for assisting the @NRL in its three double headers too. Great work Melbourne. 140 days till Round 1 #NRL pic.twitter.com/yDztHqHskf

So far: Broncos, Rabbitohs, Sharks and Storm all happy with the #NRLDraw. RLPA too.

Have to say i'm a fan of our draw. Tough start but who's ever at their best in the first 6 wks? Could work in our favour.#NRLDraw #OnTheBus

I don't know why playing a team close together is that big of an issue. Not ideal, but not a big deal in the scheme of things. -M

I'm outraged that there's very little outrage over the #NRLDraw -Twitter is going soft! 😣
