2016 NRL Bye Rounds

We can’t get too hung up on the draw, but it’s always important to have a look at when team’s have the bye.

Firstly so that you can understand how your fantasy NRLCEO players will be affected around Origin, but mostly so that you can avoid picking your back-up squad members playing the same week as your stars.

As always with NRLCEO Fantasy Rugby League, the byes can help bring lower teams back to the pack when the representative stars are away and this year Rounds 12, 15 and 18 are the horror rounds with eight teams each having the bye. The best team with bye coverage is the Parramatta Eels who don’t play in any of the major bye rounds.

A Founder of NRLCEO. Jamie spends far more time on running the site than his own team and is therefore a perennial struggler, much to the delight of his mates. He is a former Bears, now Raiders tragic. A rangy lock who avoided running the ball at all costs, he once tackled (flopped on) John Hopoate. Web geek by day, web geek by night.
