Appropriately the feature match of the round between Sydney and St George Illawarra comes up at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Anzac Day.
The reigning premiers scored a gutsy golden point win over Melbourne on Good Friday and will be strengthened by the return of Siosiua Taukeiaho, who was a late withdrawal from the game against the Storm.
Jack Friend will also be returning should be sufficient to give the Roosters an edge over the Dragons in what should be a thriller.
Another feature clash will be between the Manly and Canberra at Brookvale Oval.
Neither side was totally convincing in round 6 with the Raiders beating Brisbane 24-20 while the Sea Eagles went down 10-12 to the Dragons.
With first season player John Bateman, in exceptional form in attack and defence, the Raiders should prevail despite giving away the home ground/crowd advantage to Manly.
Whether the Broncos have any chance of making the finals should be indicated by their performance against Cronulla-Sutherland at Suncorp on Saturday.
It seems the locals will be in for a disappointment.
