Live Sport Bible: AFL Grand Final and NRL Prelims headline this weekend
Sport Nation • September 26th, 2025 10:29 am
Could the Brisbane Lions successfully defend their title as AFL champions?
Grand Final weekend is upon us, and along with the on-field battle between the Lions and the Geelong Cats, Long Beach's finest Snoop Dogg headlines the party. Our partners SEN will be live from the MCG for all of it.
The NRL Finals heat up further with four teams left standing across two epic Preliminary Finals to decide who will meet at Accor Stadium on October 5, starting with Friday's battle between the Melbourne Storm and Cronulla Sharks, and concludes with the Penrith Panthers vs Brisbane Broncos.
The Silver Ferns also wrap up the Taini Jamison Trophy series looking for a clean sweep of the Proteas, plus the Premier League continues with live coverage on Sport Nation thanks to talkSPORT.
Here is your live sport bible for everything that's on Sport Nation from September 26 through to the morning of September 29 (all times in NZST).
