The Qld Reds have the dream draw for 2010. Playing at home first vs. going to the road, especially to South Africa. It's tough playing the Africans on home soil at the start of the season, before their perennial fade from (dare I whisper the word) over-train...hold it, I know how to say it better - from lack of recovery - from their approach to training and travel.
Playing NSW, the arch-enemy, in Brisbane. I am confident the stats will support a greater chance of the Reds winning on home soil (if you can call Suncorp home).
Cantebury at home for the Reds AND at the start of the season. I wouldn't need all the fingers on one hand to count the number of seasons the Christchurch team have been in form for the start of the season.
Then Auckland in home in Brisbane - this time really at home, at Ballymore.
It doesn't get any better. This could give the momentum for reasonably successful season relatively speaking for this team.
