Rugby League fans throughout Australia are excited for the start of the NRL 2025 season.
This year the premiership regular season will begin on the 1st of March and run until the 5th of October 2025. It’s bound to be an exciting season of footy, and we’ll keep you up-to-date with how you can watch NRL Tonight on Channel 9, Kayo and Foxtel.
NRL Tonight: 2025 broadcast and streaming guide
The 2025 Telstra NRL Premiership is set to be one of the most exciting with even more teams and rivalries making for great viewing.
The TV broadcast rights for the 2025 NRL regular season once again belong to FOX League (Foxtel, Kayo Sports) and the Nine Network.
Every current round on the 2025 NRL schedule, to include match dates, live TV times, locations, broadcasters and streaming services, will be listed below.
The Nine network’s Channel 9 is the official NRL free to air broadcast provider in Australia. This allows the network to show, on average, up to three live matches per week during the regular season, but very few matches on Saturday until the 24th round.
Channel 9 however, will air every match of the Finals Series, and the Grand Final, for which they have exclusive live rights.
If you want to watch every match from every round of the NRL regular season including the Final Series (Grand Final replays only), then Fox Footy is the best option for streaming the NRL free.
