NRL Draw 2022: Full 25-round fixtures and schedule image

The 2022 NRL draw has officially been released, with a host of blockbusters in the early rounds set to kickoff the campaign.

Adam Reynolds will take on his former club South Sydney in the first round of the season, while top-four sides Penrith and Manly will do battle on the Thursday night. 

Things won't get off to a fun start for the under-pressure Wests Tigers as they take on Melbourne in the first round, while the Roosters clash with the Knights. 

After a rollercoaster 2021 season, St George Illawarra will take on the Warriors in the first game of their season, while the new-look Sharks take on the Raiders. 

In the final two games of the first round, Parramatta will face the Titans before bottom-four outfits Canterbury and North Queensland go head-to-head on the Sunday night. 

The grand final rematch looks set for round four, with the Rabbitohs and Panthers to renew their recent rivalry at Bluebet Stadium. 

Local rivals the Sharks and Dragons as well as South Sydney and Roosters will meet in round three, while Magic Round is set for round 10 in Brisbane. 

Cronulla will return to their home ground this season after two years playing at Kogarah, while the Warriors are slated to return to Mt Smart Stadium later in the year. 

Here's the full draw for the 2022 NRL season.
