The St George Illawarra Dragons will put their NRLW season on the line in a must-win game when the competition has its first-ever stand-alone game in Auckland as they take on the New Zealand Warriors. Join The Roar for live scores and coverage from 1:15pm (AEST).
Melbourne Storm hooker Cameron Smith, who was sensationally sent to the sin bin during the Melbourne Storm’s shut out victory over the Parramatta Eels in Saturday night’s semi-final, has escaped with a fine.
Shane Flanagan has received the green light to return to the NRL, although Todd Greenberg emphasised this was not to be “a set and forget approach”.
The South Sydney Rabbitohs have kept their NRL season alive, winning a thrilling, high-scoring semi-final over the Manly Sea Eagles to book a trip to the nation’s capital next weekend. Here are my talking points from the match.
The Melbourne Storm will be out to avenge their loss from seven days ago when the season goes on the line a week earlier than they would have liked as they host a red-hot and overconfident Parramatta Eels side in the second NRL semi-final.
The South Sydney Rabbitohs have recorded a finals win for the ages, scoring the last two tries of the match to sneak past the Manly Sea Eagles 32-26 and into a preliminary final.
Disgraced Cronulla Sharks premiership coach Shane Flanagan will be allowed back into the NRL in an assistant coaching role in season 2020.
Righto, Sammy. Let’s go with it. Let’s make penalties for misdemeanours on the field relative to the weight of a man’s name and profile in the game, and the importance of upcoming fixtures.
The four sides going into this weekend’s semi-finals enter them into totally different moods.
You don’t have to be Brad Arthur to know what lies around the corner. Hell, you don’t even have to be Craig Bellamy. Anyone with half a footy brain knows that Melbourne’s finals strategy is locked into their DNA.
It’s going to be another Roosters and Storm decider.
Yes, you read the first half of the headline correctly. The Brisbane Broncos do not deserve to be playing finals football in 2019.
With the 2019 season coming to a close, so does a decade filled with moments that will be remembered for as long as rugby league continues to breathe.
A moment from South Sydney’s win over Manly to start the second week of the NRL finals has sparked outcry on social media, amidst the backdrop of controversies surrounding eye rakes.
South Sydney progressed to book a spot in a preliminary final against Canberra next week, with a dramatic win over Manly.
‘That’s the problem- we’re trying to PC the game.’
Gee, wonder what he’s upset about?
They are the Liberaces of league. Like Madonna and Maradona, Pele and Prince, these worthies need one handle only. One is plenty.
