As the new year is upon us it means that we are getting ever so close to kicking off the 2018 NRL season with much to be anticipated.
So if you aren’t already, here are 10 reasons to be excited about the 2018 NRL season. As always don’t forget to leave your opinions below.
New Signings on Show
Due to the NRL’s salary cap increase, we saw a number of players sign with new clubs in 2017 for a large sum of money. It can even be argued that in 2017 we saw some of if not the biggest signings in NRL history and these very players will be on show at their new clubs for the first time in 2018.
With players such as Matt Moylan attempting to rebuild their career at Cronulla after being dropped from the New South Wales Origin side and the Australian Kangaroos side along with a disappointing end to his career at Penrith as he was outshone by young gun Nathan Cleary or, a player like Cooper Cronk, moving to the Sydney Roosters not only for personal reasons, but to prove he can play just as well without Billy Slater or Cameron Smith by his side.
Straight away in Round 1, we will also see some of these players up against their old clubs straight away with Ben Hunt up against his former side the Broncos and James Tedesco up against the Tigers.
