TV Guide: The footy is back as the NRL returns on Nine for round 3

• The NRL season re-launch will kick off with the Brisbane Broncos and Parramatta Eels

The 2020 NRL season is back on Nine with three highly anticipated clashes headlining Round 3. 

On Macca’s Thursday Night Footy, the Brisbane Broncos will host the Parramatta Eels at Suncorp Stadium which will be the first time they played since the Eels knocked out the broncos in the 2019 finals. Both sides had enjoyed a strong start to the year before the season was paused and will be looking to re-establish their momentum. 

The oldest rivalry in rugby league will reignite on VB Friday Night Footy when the defending premiers the Sydney Roosters take on the South Sydney Rabbitohs at Bankwest Stadium. It’s 112 years into their storied feud, and the Roosters will need to get their first win of the shortened season after starting 0-2 from the first two rounds.
