ROUND 22

THE BATTLE OF SYDNEY LIVE ON FRIDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL, PHIL GOULD AND BILLY SLATER JOIN THE FOOTY SHOW

Phil Gould joins The Footy Show tonight to discuss the feud brewing between the Tigers and Panthers over coach Ivan Cleary, and the Rabbitohs and Roosters meet in a showdown with big premiership implications in Round 22 of the NRL, LIVE on Nine.

Women in League round kicks off tonight from 7.30 on Thursday Night Football , with the Cowboys desperate to avoid the wooden spoon in Johnathan Thurston’s final season. They take on a shaky Broncos side who need a victory to lock up a spot in the top eight. Captain Darius Boyd returns to fullback and needs to be at his dazzling best to provide the spark his side needs, while retiring forward Sam Thaiday marks his milestone 300th appearance as a Bronco.

After the game, Panthers General Manager of Football, Phil Gould , joins The Footy Show in the studio to address the biggest NRL story of the year as the coaching dramas at Penrith deepen. The panel will also cross to the retiring Sam Thaiday and Johnathan Thurston following their clash in Townsville. In a special segment, host Erin Molan catches up with Billy and Nicole Slater following Billy’s retirement announcement to talk about life after footy, after which the panel will cross live to the champion fullback. NSW women’s captain, Maddie Studdon , will also be a guest to discuss the WNRL competition which begins during this year’s NRL finals series.

Friday Night Football from 7.30pm* features the game of the round between the Rabbitohs and their arch-rivals, the Roosters. The winners will be in a prime position to claim the minor premiership. In-form Souths hooker Damien Cook will be a crucial weapon in the contest, as will Roosters’ young gun Latrell Mitchell , who has scored six tries in his past three games.

In Saturday Night Football , the Dragons – smarting after going down to the Warriors last week – take on the Eels, another outfit hoping to restore some pride and avoid the wooden spoon. A Parramatta reshuffle moves Corey Norman to fullback. The Dragons will need their halves pairing of Ben Hunt and Gareth Widdop to fire if they want to stay in the top four.

On Sunday Football live at 3.00pm*, the sixth-placed Cronulla Sharks meet the premiers, the Melbourne Storm. Both sides are coming off stinging losses in Round 21, which will add extra fire to an always spicy contest. After announcing his retirement, the great Billy Slater lines up opposite Valentine Holmes , the super-slick Sharks fullback out to spoil the party.

PODCAST – SIX TACKLES WITH GUS

James Bracey discusses the biggest rugby league issues of the week with NRL legend and expert commentator Phil Gould on Six Tackles with Gus .

This week, Gould gives an in-depth explanation of the Panthers-Tigers coaching saga.

if that happens, then Andrew Voss becomes Fox’s main caller. Julian Daw or Chris Warren joining Fox, perhaps?

Fox could also get David Morrow from 2GB.

The problem with that idea at the moment is that he has a seven day per week job at 2GB-MSR.

Nine has scheduled next Friday’s Melbourne Storm V Parramatta Eels on the main channel in Melbourne.

Nine apologises to Dave Taylor for Sunday Footy Show segment

Nine would like to apologise to former NRL player Dave Taylor for any offence caused by a segment on the Sunday Footy Show yesterday.

A Nine spokesman has issued the following statement: "We apologise to Dave Taylor for yesterday’s segment on the Sunday Footy Show.

"It was not the intention of the show to embarrass him.

“He’s been a wonderful rugby league player for many years, and through his playing and his personality off the field has contributed greatly to rugby league in this country.”

Then what was the intention of that clusterfuck?

In tonight’s game, Nine stopped showing the game clock with five minutes to go.

They showed the tackle count in the place of that graphic instead, very reminiscent of Ten AFL’s five minutes warning.

The game then blew out and the clock was back by full time.

Wonder if they’ll continue to trial the tweak during the finals.

relax, it was because there time was not the same as the ground clock, nothing new

Yes, towards the end of the first half, Nine’s clock had already ticked over to half time when there was still about 20 seconds of play to follow.

No mention of Ray Warren for any of the 4 NRL games this weekend.

You’d think he would be calling any of the Thursday night, Saturday night or Sunday afternoon game since they are all in Sydney.
