Six Again | NRL Supercoach Round 24, everything you need to know


<p>Round 23 really was a reality check for many. </p>



<p>It all came crashing back down for Sam Walker, Nicho Hynes, and, of course, the majority of Supercoach managers.</p>



<p>Oh, how quickly this wonderful game of Supercoach twists and turns. </p>



<p>From last week, where scoring 1600 led to red arrows, to this week where 1642 would have won you $2k for taking out team of the week.</p>

<p>With just a month of regular season footy to play out, it is now or never for many managers. </p>



<p>Whether you are battling furiously for your H2H league title, desperately trying to hold on to your high rank, or throwing your last punches to try crack a higher rank, these lost four weeks are going to be intense.</p>



<p>For those still with trades up their sleeve, it is now a game of POD hunting, and for those without, it is all about survival.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>NRL ROUND 23 PREVIEW</strong></h3>



<p>Round 23 will kick off at <strong>7:50pm AEST, Thursday, the 13th of August</strong>, with a blockbuster top-of-the-table clash between the Panthers and Roosters. Dare I say the winner takes the minor premiership?</p>



<p>Perhaps even higher stakes is Souths vs Bulldogs on Friday night, 7th vs 9th, truly edge-of-the-seat stuff.</p>



<p>On paper, the games to target this week from a Supercoach perspective are probably the Warriors vs Broncos and Knights vs Titans.</p>



<p>This week it is the Storm who get the bye, after a very impressive comeback win over in the West.</p>
