NRL Round 18 fixture on Channel 9 – NRL on Nine this week is all about redemption and the chase for a spot in the top-eight, with three games live and free on Channel 9HD and 9Now.
At Suncorp Stadium for Friday Night Footy, the Broncos, bolstered by the return of State of Origin stars Payne Haas, Patrick Carrigan and Reece Walsh, meet their 2023 Grand Final adversaries, the Panthers, who are smarting after losing to the Cowboys last weekend.
The defending premiers welcome back NSW Blues representatives: Brian To’o, Jarome Luai, Dylan Edwards and Liam Martin who they will look to for a challenging away win.
NRL on Nine will be live on the ground with host James Bracey, joined by Brad Fittler and Johnathan Thurston, Paul “Fatty” Vautin, Cameron Smith and Peter Psaltis, while Darren Lockyer and Danika Mason provide sideline updates.
But first up, Thursday Night Footy will ignite CommBank Stadium with the Eels facing the resurgent Rabbitohs. Can Mitchell Moses replicate his State of Origin magic to lift the Eels up the ladder, or will the Rabbitohs, led by skipper Cameron Murray, another Origin star, extend their winning streak to five?
Wrapping up the weekend, Sunday Footy comes from GIO Stadium, where the Newcastle Knights, with barnstorming centre Bradman Best, face Ricky Stuart’s Canberra Raiders who are desperate for a win after dropping their last three home games.
Wide World of Sports, followed by The Sunday Footy Show at 11.00am, will have all the comprehensive analysis and latest highlights for NRL Round 18.
