NRL on Nine round 5 fixture – East meeting West, magic men Cameron Munster and Latrell Mitchell up to their dazzling tricks, and Nicho Hynes shines on Sunday Arvo Footy, this week in NRL Round 5 on Channel 9HD or streaming for free on 9Now.
In the closest start to an NRL season in years, the round begins on Thursday Night Footy with a classic East v West battle between the Roosters and the Eels.
Both teams are chasing back-to-back wins. James Tedesco’s Roosters want to stamp more authority on their new home ground, Allianz Stadium, while Mitch Moses, whose golden point field goal sunk the premiers last week, will be plotting to take down the Tricolours in tandem with Clint Gutherson.
Rugby league fans are in for a magic show on Friday Night Footy when two attacking wizards, the Storm’s Cameron Munster and Rabbitohs star Latrell Mitchell, produce their book of tricks.
The Storm have won seven of their last eight games against the Rabbitohs, but the Bunnies are on the hunt for back-to-back wins against the Storm for the first time in club history.
Sunday Arvo Footy shines this week with Dally M Medallist Nicho Hynes planning a feeding frenzy when his Sharks meet the Warriors.
The Warriors have started the season solidly with three wins, but face a tough task against the well-drilled Sharks at their home, a ground that has been dubbed the Bermuda Triangle for away teams by commentators.
Nine’s Wide World of Sports has exclusive access to the ground for its commentary team this week, one of more than 140 rugby league games it is bringing viewers for free in 2023.
