The Australian Rugby League Commission has announced its plans to restart the NRL competition on the 28th of May.

This follows a meeting yesterday where the Australian Rugby League Commission approved the plans to get the competition up and running almost 10 weeks after it was suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The State of Origin competition will remain in a standard three-game format and the grand final to be played in Sydney.

Plans are also in place for the completion of the remaining rounds of a regular NRL season rather than playing in conferences.

The NRL is also waiting for Australian government’s approval before deciding on whether all teams will be based in Sydney at the start of the competition.
