WHAT a monster weekend of sport we’re in for, with the A-League finals starting, the AFL Battle of the Bridge and the clubs at the centre of this weeks’ amazing NRL player merry-go-round going head to head.

And you can watch them ALL on your smart TV, PC or Mac, tablet or smartphone via our sensational Ultimate Sports Package.

1. A-League Finals: Roar v Wanderers

Fri 7:50pm, Fox Sports 505

It’s sudden death when Brisbane takes on Western Sydney Wanderers in the first elimination final at Suncorp Stadium. The visitors enjoyed a strong back-end of the season while Roar has been very consistent for much of the campaign. Which team will advance and book their ticket to play minor premiers Sydney FC in the grand final qualifier?

2. AFL: Swans v Giants

Sat 7:20pm, Fox Footy 504

The stakes will be high when the Swans host the Giants at the SCG on Saturday night. Sydney will be desperate to snap their four-game losing streak against their local rivals, who will start favourites in this fixture for the first time. Can the 0-4 Bloods get their season back on track or will the GWS continue their march towards a maiden premiership?

3.NRL: Tigers v Bulldogs

Sun 4pm, Fox League

There will be added spice at ANZ Stadium after ‘Buzz’ Rothfield broke the news that Tigers captain Aaron Woods has signed with the Bulldogs for next season. Canterbury is coming off the back of three straight wins while the Tigers narrowly went down to the Eels on Easter Monday. How will the joint venture respond to this week’s signings turmoil?

David Klemmer will battle Aaron Woods on Sunday in the much-anticipated clash.

4. FA Cup Semi Final: Chelsea v Tottenham

Sun 2:15am, ESPN 1

As if this London derby needed any extra significance, Tottenham will travel to Stanford Bridge for a spot in the FA Cup final. Chelsea has a firm grip on the EPL title but their closest title rivals will be looking to knock the Blues out of the Cup and get one step closer to silverware this season. The winner will play either Arsenal or Man City, who battle it out Monday morning.

5.NBA Finals: Celtics v Bulls – Game 3

Sat 9am, ESPN 1

The Celtics finished the regular season on top of the Eastern Conference but are in danger of facing a first-round finals exit as they trail the Bulls 2-0. Can Isaiah Thomas and Rajon Rondo silence the Chicago crowd to keep their NBA playoff hopes alive?
