What time is the NRL on TV tonight?
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.
