The 2024 NRL draw has revealed some epic grudge matches that are sure to set the field on fire.

One of the most highly anticipated clashes will be when Luke Brooks faces off against his former team, the Wests Tigers, in round 25 after joining the Sea Eagles.

Brooks, who played 11 seasons and 205 games for the Tigers, is expecting a hostile reception at Leichhardt Oval, but he's ready to settle the score.

Another showdown to watch out for is Jack Wighton's return to Canberra as a member of the Rabbitohs in round 21.

Wighton, who achieved great success with the Raiders, made the controversial move to South Sydney despite a higher offer from Canberra.

Additionally, the Penrith Panthers will have several grudge matches throughout the season, including a grand final rematch against Brisbane in round 3, a clash against former player Spencer Leniu and the Roosters in round 4, and a showdown with Canterbury in round 10.

With these highly anticipated matchups, the 2024 NRL season is set to be one for the history books.
