NRL Finals Week 2020: where to watch the Rugby League qualifiers live online
We've finally entered the closing stages of the 2020 Telstra NRL Premiership and, as always, there's been no shortage of sweat, blood and tears. All those battles and the drama has been for a place in the Grand Final, but before that can happen, the top eight teams will need to fight hard through the qualifying rounds.
And that begins tonight (Friday, October 2).
The road to Grand Final glory kicks off today with the first of four qualifiers this week at 7:50pm AEST, with the Penrith Panthers taking on the Sydney Roosters at Panthers Stadium.
The Panthers have a hard task ahead as defending champs, Roosters, have won back-to-back Premierships and will be looking to redeem their fourth-place drop in the ladder after losing to the Bunnies.
The excitement, of course, doesn't stop there. Saturday has two qualifiers back-to-back – the Raiders from Canberra will be taking on the Cronulla Sharks at 5:30pm AEST on October 3 at GIO Stadium, after which Melbourne Storm and the Parramatta Eels face off from Suncorp Stadium at 7:50pm AEST.
The fourth match for the first week of qualifiers will be at 4pm AEST on Sunday, October 4, with South Sydney's Rabbitohs against the Newcastle Knights at ANZ Stadium.
How to watch NRL 2020 Finals Week online
The best place to catch all the qualifiers live online would be on Kayo Sports. This streaming service is dedicated to sports and designed to be a die-hard sports fan's best friend.
It's feature-packed with things like SplitView, which lets you watch up to four different streams on the same window, and interactive live stats that are available for all NRL games.
If you happen to miss a game but don't have time to watch a full replay, Kayo Minis will get you up to date with all the highlights in bite-sized clips.
Better yet, the basic Kayo Sports package allows you to stream your favourite sports across two devices simultaneously, or you can opt for the premium package and stream across three different devices at once.
That not enough? Kayo gives you a 14-day free trial to figure out if you'll be happy with the service or not. For a more in-depth look at what the sports streaming service has to offer, check out our Kayo Sports review.
