00:00Hello Illawarra sports fans, there's a massive weekend of sport coming your way.
00:04We'll be across it all. Jordan Warren here with Agron Latifi, as we do every Friday mate.
00:08Obviously there's a lot of big games this weekend. Let's start obviously with the Dragons.
00:11They've got a massive game tomorrow night in Brisbane.
00:13Huge game, huge game. Obviously Dragons, you know, they lost to Rooster last week,
00:18so this is, I wouldn't say a must win, but obviously a very important game for the Dragons.
00:22Sorry, the Broncos are missing a lot of players to State of Origin.
00:26Dragons are also missing Lomax and their skipper Ben Hunt,
00:31but it's a big game and they really need to win to get back to or stay in touch with the top eight.
00:38Yeah, that's that unpredictability, doesn't it? Having those Origin stars out on both sides.
00:43And then obviously there's a massive weekend in football.
00:45We've got the Burt Benton Cup final between Bulleye and Shell Harbour Sunday at 2.30pm at Wetherill Park.
00:50So that's going to be a massive game there.
00:52Obviously the Wolves and the Stingrays are on this weekend.
00:54The Wolves, they're away on Saturday night. A massive game for them too against Arpia.
00:58It was an unfortunate loss for them last week.
01:00Last kick of the game against Sydney Olympics, so they need to beat Arpia.
01:03And of course the Stingrays are at home on Sunday 5pm.
01:06And of course there's some massive Rugby League games this week, mate. Talk me through those.
01:09There is, there is. In Illawarra Rugby League, there's on Saturday,
01:13defending Premier's the Butchers are taking on De La Salle,
01:16who are league leaders and, you know, flying at the moment.
01:19So it's a crucial game, crucial game for the Butchers.
01:22And then on Sunday in Group 7, Warrilla's going to be the next team trying to beat Shell Harbour Sharks.
01:28No one's beat the Sharks. So, you know, I think, you know, it's an important game for Warrilla as well.
01:33They're doing well, but, you know, if the Sharks keep on winning, it's, you know, they're having a great season.
01:39Yeah, the Sharks are absolutely flying 11 in a row.
01:41And of course, Durangon Lions hot on their heels as well.
01:44And of course, we can't forget the Harvey Norman Premiership Steelers.
01:47The Illawarra Steelers are in action on Sunday at Collegiate Sports Complex.
01:51That's their first home game of the season.
01:52They had a tough 8-4 loss to the defending Premiers last week,
01:55but by all accounts, they played quite well and will be hopeful for a win this weekend.
02:00And of course, Illawarra Rugby, we can't forget Illawarra Rugby.
02:03What's going on there, mate?
02:04Illawarra Rugby, there's a couple of crucial games.
02:06One of the most important games, I think, is the game between Shamrocks and Vikings,
02:10who are both struggling this season.
02:12But yeah, it'd be nice to see one of those teams, you know,
02:16obviously one of those teams going to win.
02:18But yeah, it would be nice for one of them to get some confidence and get some wins.
02:22For sure. Head to the Illawarra Mercury website for all the latest coverage across the weekend.
