NRL on Nine round 11 fixture – The battles will come from all directions before finishing on the beaches in a blockbuster weekend of NRL on Nine, starting tonight at 7.30 on Channel 9HD and 9Now.
Shining brightly at the top of the table, the Brisbane Broncos head south to Melbourne for Thursday Night Footy where they’ll have to fight their way through the Storm, who have not lost to the Broncos at AAMI Park since 2016.
Instigating the points for the Broncos will be wily halfback Adam Reynolds and excitement machines Reece Walsh and Selwyn Cobbo, but Melbourne’s magic man Cameron Munster will have a few tricks of his own up his sleeve to inspire a Storm victory.
East meets west on Friday Night Footy when the Roosters travel to the premiership- winning Panthers den in Penrith, out to claim a big scalp in a return to top form.
Aggressive powerhouse forwards James Fisher-Harris and Jared Waerea-Hargreaves will collide, setting a spectacle of their own at the foot of the mountains, while the influence of Roosters fullback James Tedesco and Panthers playmaker Nathan Cleary shapes the outcome of the contest.
Sunday Arvo Footy features the battle of Sydney’s beaches between the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles and Cronulla Sharks.
Sharks playmaker and NSW State of Origin hopeful Nicho Hynes gets a shot at taking on Queensland and Manly halfback Daly Cherry-Evans, in an encounter featuring Nine experts and Origin coaches Billy Slater and Brad Fittler in commentary from 3.00pm.
