NRL Round 27 fixture on Channel 9 – Footy fans will be sent into a spellbinding state as they witness their teams’ finals fate unfold from tonight at 7.00pm, when NRL on Nine delivers the final-round drama in the closest end to a season in years, across four big games on Channel 9HD and 9Now.
First up, the Brisbane Broncos can claim their first minor premiership since 2000 on Thursday Night Footy with a win against the Melbourne Storm, who welcome Ryan Papenhuyzen back to their starting lineup for the first time in over a year.
However, the Storm really have the wood on the Broncos, winning their last 13 games and not losing a game at their home ground, Suncorp Stadium, since 2009.
Friday Night Footy rekindles the greatest rivalry in rugby league – one that goes back more than 100 years – when the Rabbitohs meet the Roosters for the latest chapter in South Sydney owner Russell Crowe’s “Book of Feuds”.
The immeasurable disdain these two clubs have for each other is ready to boil over once again, with a place in the finals on the line for the winner. Football just doesn’t get any bigger than this clash – get ready for fireworks going off all over Accor Stadium.
On Saturday Night Footy at 7.00pm, the finals-bound Knights will be looking to put the Dragons to the sword, while the Red V are aiming for a last-round win to reward their fans after a disappointing season.
Then the regular season reaches the crescendo when the Sharks face a win-or-bust Raiders outfit on Sunday Arvo Footy.
A home final is on the line for the winning team, but if Ricky Stuart’s Raiders lose it’s curtains for the Green Machine in 2023.
Also this week, NRLW Round 7 features a triple-header on Saturday on Nine from 11.00am, while the Sunday Footy Show leads into a Sunday double-header before the NRL Sharks v Raiders game.
