The NRL Preseason game between Paramatta and St George Illawarra is set to show us whether either side has a squad good enough for honours in 2021.
How to watch Paramatta vs St George Illawarra
Bradley Arthur’s Eels take on Anthony Griffin’s Dragons in what looks like being a very tasty NRL Preseason encounter.
With no Nines competition this year for the players to dust off the cobwebs, preseason fixtures are the only way these two coaches can really test their new line-ups.
Both teams have a few new faces for 2021. The Eels have brought in seven in total, including Tom Opacic (Cowboys), Nathaniel Roache and Isaiah Papali’i (Warriors).
The Dragons have been a little less busy in the market with only three additions in the shape of Poasa Faamausili (Roosters), Jack Bird (Broncos) and Daniel Alvaro (Eels).
What time is Eels vs Dragons?
Netstrata Jubilee Stadium is the venue for the NRL Preseason game this Thursday, with things getting underway from 5.30pm.
League fans will also be interested to hear that both women’s and men’’s All Star games will take place at 4.40pm and 7.10pm respectively – this Saturday in Townsville.

A brand new international rugby tournament, the Autumn Nations Cup, is set to kick off this weekend in the Northern Hemisphere – featuring all of the Six Nations teams along with Georgia and Fiji. Here’s everything you need to know about the competition, including how you can watch games live on your TV or mobile device.
What is the Autumn Nations Cup?
Usually, at this time of year European Rugby Nations are preparing themselves for visiting giants such as Australia, New Zealand and South Africa during the Autumn Internationals. But as with just about every other sport, coronavirus has thrown a spanner in the works.
This has left England, France; Ireland, Wales, Scotland and Ireland with a big, empty fixture schedule. So the Six Nations sides invited Georgia and Fiji to help create a unique, one-off competition.
The teams in the Autumn Nations Cup will be split into two groups of four and play a round-robin format over three weeks. The two teams that win both groups will then play each other in the Grand Final on December 7th.

Stan streaming service will move into sports streaming in 2021
Stan will start streaming Super Rugby, Super W, The Rugby Championship, including the Bledisloe Cup, Wallaroos games, Shute Shield, Hospital Cup, Mitre 10 & Currie Cup, plus SANZAAR Union home games live and ad-free on Stan
Nine and Stan has announced that Stan will launch its live streaming capability in 2021 with a new partnership with Rugby Australia. In 2020, Channel 10 and Fox Sports (Kayo and Foxtel) had the rights which are due to be passed over to Nine and Stan in 2021.
This new partnership between Stan and Nice will kick off in 2021 with Super Rugby, Super W, The Rugby Championship, including the Bledisloe Cup, Wallaroos games, Shute Shield, Hospital Cup, Mitre 10 & Currie Cup, plus SANZAAR Union home games live and ad-free on Stan. Rugby fans will also be able to relive the greatest moments of Australian Rugby with access to an extensive library of games available on Stan.
Stan currently has around 2 million streaming subscribers so this deal will no doubt see a huge life in volumes going into 2021.
New Zealand have named four debutants in their matchday squad for their second Tri-Nations clash with Australia. Loose forward Akira Ioane will start in the number six shirt, with Ardie Savea moving to number 8.
The three other rookies set to make an impact from the bench are Hurricanes hooker Asafo Aumua, and the promising Crusaders duo of Cullen Grace and Will Jordan.
The second game of this year’s Tri-Nations competition will take place this Saturday between Australia and New Zealand, with the Wallabies hoping to avenge last weekend’s record 43-5 loss. Dave Rennie’s men were left licking their wounds after a mauling that included 23 points from Crusaders’ first five-eighth Richie Mo’unga alone. The two sides head to Brisbane’s Suncorp Stadium this weekend, where a win would put Australia level on points at the top of the Tri-Nations table, with Argentina yet to play a game. The Wallabies certainly have the squad to be more competitive with the All Blacks, as highlighted by October’s 16-16 draw. Captain Michael Hopper is still considered one of the best flankers in the game, and the likes of Nic White and Reece Hodge look good in attack. But a youthful and at times fragile defence is the area that will need the most work if the points flow from the men in black are to be stemmed. The problem is, that same defence will be facing a second weekend up against the best-attacking rugby team on the planet. As well as the aforementioned Mo’unga, New Zealand also possess the likes of Rieko Ioane, TJ Perenara and the Barrett brothers, a formidable attack if there ever was one! Australia will have to be at the top of their game for a whole 80 minutes on Saturday, and who knows, by the end, they could still be in will a shot at the Tri-Nations title. What is certain, however, is that it’s going to be a cracker! You can catch this game live on free to air with Channel Ten.
The only place to watch all six Tri Nations games in 2020 is with Foxtel and Kayo Sports. Kayo currently has a 14 day trial, so you can catch this weekend’s game, along with New Zealand v Argentina next week, for free! Australia v New Zealand – LIVE: Friday 7th November, 7.45pm – Ten/Foxtel/Kayo.
