Nine has dropped their coverage of the NSW Canterbury Cup and Queensland Intrust Super Cup in 2021 and 2022. Neither competition will return this year. Fox Sports will again cover the NSW games next year, with online streaming a possibility for both competitions.

That was a big mistake on Nine’s part. Monday Night Football had seen huge ratings the year before, so why would Nine keep Water Rats at 8.30 instead of what could have been a bigger hit in Super League?
Nine’s team will be calling this afternoon’s Manly-Newcastle match at Brookvale Oval. From commentator Mat Thompson’s Twitter.
First time since Round 1 that match telecast will be hosted at the ground rather than in the studio.

Also means that Ray Warren hasn’t commentated a game this weekend, Peter Psaltis called the Storm-Roosters classic on Thursday night, and Mat Thompson also did Eels-Cowboys on Friday night.
Didn’t Peter Psaltis call the Broncos-Eels game from Suncorp Stadium in round three?
He means Brookvale Oval.

Erin Molan, not sure if she’s just having a blonde moment, asked the panel during “Friday Night Knock Off”…
“Do you put your foot on a gear or on a pedal?” when discussing the Tigers big win against the hapless Broncos.
Defintely having off an off night - I think.
She just referred to Gal (Paul Gallen) as Gus (Phil Gould).

To be honest, both of them are equally ugly, so easily interchangeable.
I’d still like to give her one.

It referred to Erin saying “hooka looka mooka hooka fooka” while referencing a previous story discussing the difficulty of pronouncing the names of Pacific Islands players.
