TV Guide: Titans V Cowboys kick off the 2023 NRLW season on Nine and 9Now

Nine has become the new home of the NRLW for every game, live and free on the 9Network and streamed on 9Now, from Saturday, July 22. The Titans v Cowboys will kick off the season from 12:30 pm.

The 11-week season sees four new teams joining the NRLW competition from the Cronulla Sharks, Canberra Raiders, North Queensland Cowboys and Wests Tigers. 

The new Queensland teams, the Titans and Cowboys, start the season in a triple-header of NRLW games that will feature the reigning premiers, the Knights, at home to the Dragons, and the star-studded heavyweight club battle of Broncos v Roosters.

Nine’s commentary lineup for the 2023 NRLW season will feature former Jillaroos Ruan Sims and Allana Ferguson, hosts Emma Lawrence, Danika Mason and newcomer Marlee Silva, plus Roosters captain Millie Boyle, along with support from the entire Wide World of Sports rugby league team. 

Speaking at Nine’s NRLW season launch, reigning premiership-winning captain Millie Boyle said: “I’m so excited for the 2023 season because the expanded schedule, the four new clubs and every game available for free has provided a platform to take the NRLW to the next level."

“Every club has made significant changes to their rosters, so form guides from last year go out the window. It’s going to be a very closely contested season.

“The women’s game continues to grow, so we hope we can put on a great show and inspire the next generation of NRLW stars to follow in our footsteps.”

The NRLW broadcast schedule will feature four Saturday triple-headers, regular Sunday double-headers leading into NRL Sunday Footy, three prime-time games on Channel 9HD, and two stand-alone Thursday night games during the 2023 NRL finals series. 

From the first week of August, there will be nine weekly free-to-air games across the NRL and NRLW, with women’s fixtures leading into men’s games on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon.

Every NRLW game will be available to stream on 9Now.
