Anticipation is running high among NRL enthusiasts as Channel 9HD and 9Now gear up for a final round that promises unparalleled excitement.
The highlight of Friday Night Footy is a clash that renews a century-old rivalry. South Sydney Rabbitohs and Sydney Roosters vie for a coveted finals position in a showdown that adds a new page to Russell Crowe’s “Book of Feuds”. The air at Accor Stadium will be electric, with on-field tensions set to reach fever pitch.
Saturday’s line-up features a battle between the Newcastle Knights and the St George Illawarra Dragons. Though the Knights have already secured a finals berth, they’re keen to dominate, while the Dragons hope to exit the season on a high note for their fan base.
Capping off the weekend, Sunday’s match places Cronulla Sharks against Canberra Raiders in an all-or-nothing face-off. The winner seizes home advantage in the finals, but a loss for Ricky Stuart’s Raiders spells the end of the road in 2023.
The female rugby stars also get their moment in the spotlight with NRLW Round 7. A Saturday triple-header initiates the day’s action, culminating in a double-header on Sunday before the much-anticipated Sharks versus Raiders match.
And the footy action isn’t confined to just the weekend. The Sunday Footy Show brings you expert analysis starting at 11am, featuring Billy Slater, Andrew Johns, Brad Fittler, and Danika Mason. Then, keep your eyes peeled for 100% Footy, airing on Monday.
No shortage of excitement as the final round unfolds. From high stakes to old rivalries, this weekend’s NRL action is not to be missed.
