2007 NRL Draw released

The NRL have released the full draw for the 2007 season with the Grand Final to take place on Sunday September 30 and the competition to begin on March 16.

Melbourne will have to wait until round seven before getting a shot at redemption against Grand Final conquerors Brisbane.

The pools were based on finishing positions for 2006. They are:

Pool A: Storm, Knights, Sea Eagles, Eels, Cowboys, Panthers, Sharks, Titans.

Pool B: Bulldogs, Broncos, Dragons, Raiders, Warriors, Tigers, Roosters, Rabbitohs.
