The NRL season kicks off tonight at AAMI Park, as last year’s champions the Melbourne Storm take on the Rabbitohs in the opener at 8.05pm on Nine, as well as Fox Sports.

Nine will air three games over round one, with Friday night’s game between the Broncos and the Eels and Sunday afternoon’s matchup between the Raiders and the Tigers rounding out the lineup. These, and the remaining games of the round, will also be available on Foxtel and Kayo Sports.
