NTFL 2024-25 live stream: Watch Waratah v Southern Districts Round 1

Southern Districts will show off their much-vaunted list for the first time this season against a Waratah outfit known for big opening round performances. Watch LIVE.

Southern Districts get their first chance to show off their star-studded line-up against perennial fast starters Waratah in what is shaping as a thrilling closer to Round 1.

And the NT News and KommunityTV will stream every moment from 7pm on Saturday.

This time last season these clubs were fighting out a Round 1 grand final rematch, in which then premiers Waratah showed they meant business.

Butt will fortunes be reversed 12 months later?

Southern Districts have been tipped as one of the league favourites, especially with former AFL players Jed Anderson, Jarrod Brander and now Steven Motlop all at their disposal.

Check the weekend LIVE STREAM schedule below.

Southern Districts' Michael Bowden and Waratah's Dylan Collis.

The ruck towers of Matt Dennis and Wyatt Ryan are both back, too, for their tilt at a flag, while the most recent player to break the 100-goal barrier, Will Farrer, is also back in the side.

It’s a dangerous Districts side, but they will be wary of a Tahs outfit that have become known for their ability to start a season with few signs of rust.

The usual customers in Brodie Carroll and Scott Carlin will get plenty of the ball in the midfield, while captain Dylan Collis will marshal a backline that will have some heavy lifting to do.

The question though is where the goals will come from, with leading goal kicker Jayden Magro out while Anthony Munkara is another question mark.

Watch the full replay at the end of the game.

The NT News and AFL Northern Territory have come together in a partnership to live stream both the men’s and women’s Premier League games for this TIO NTFL season.
