All tickets for the Clash of the Champions game were snapped up in the pre-sale [PA Media]
Hull KR reports all tickets for their Clash of the Champions match against Brisbane Boncos have been sold – and claimed a new attendance record for the MKM Stadium.
All 24,600 tickets for the match on 19 February 2026 have been sold before going on general release.
The Robins said the current attendance record for a rugby league game at the venue – the home of Hull FC – was set in 2007 when 23,000 fans watched the city derby.

Sam Darnold on Sunday had a meltdown game by throwing four interceptions that helped cost the Seattle Seahawks the game against the Los Angeles Rams. And afterward, the quarterback launched into a verbal self-flaggelation session in his attempt to be accountable.
But that’s not the news.
We’re used to Darnold struggling against the Rams.
And we’re used to Darnold beating himself up in a post-game press conference after the Rams beat him.
The news is what happened afterward when teammate Ernest Jones IV, who was standing off to the side, had his turn at the podium.
Just one game remains in Week 11 of the 2025 NFL season.
But some teams have probably started thinking about the 2026 NFL Draft.
Teams such as the Tennessee Titans, New York Giants, and Cleveland Browns for example, could already be thinking about what players might be available as the 2026 NFL Draft begins. Tennessee and New York likely feel pretty good about their quarterback situation with how Cam Ward and Jaxson Dart have played, but the Browns might be looking at some quarterback film here as Thanksgiving looms.
Hello and welcome to the Week 12 waiver wire watch!
Another weekend of NFL action is mostly in the books and don’t look now, but we’re rapidly approaching Thanksgiving and that means the fantasy playoffs are right around the corner. So you better start getting things in order for a postseason push. We still have the Monday night showdown between the Cowboys and Raiders to get to this evening, but it’s not too early to start looking for ways to fortify your rosters for next week.
As the 2025 NFL season rounds into the closing stretch, the playoff picture is taking shape.
Sunday’s slate of games changed the picture in a few different ways, in both the AFC and the NFC. Let’s dive in.
What are the AFC playoff standings?
Here are the current AFC playoff standings, with a new team at the top of the pile.
The Vikings are in trouble. Not just for their season, which effectively got flushed down the drain with a 19-17 loss to the Bears on Sunday — but their future is suddenly looking very bleak at the QB position. J.J. McCarthy didn’t just have a bad game by his standards. It was an awful affair both in terms of the box score, but more alarming how McCarthy played the game.
It’s foolish to look at the score and assume McCarthy played “okay,” simply because he managed to keep the game close and throw a touchdown in the fourth quarter.
With a 2-7 record heading into Week 11, the Las Vegas Raiders are the underdogs heading into this week’s Monday Night Football matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys are coming off a bye week, and Monday’s game will be their first without defensive lineman Marshawn Kneeland, who passed away on Nov. 6. Here’s what you need to know to tune into Monday Night Football’s Cowboys vs. Raiders game.
How to watch the Dallas Cowboys vs. Las Vegas Raiders:
Date: Monday, Nov. 17, 2025
Time: 8:15 p.m.
For the first time since September Penn State has won a football game. 8 weeks without a victory. Several – mostly? – near misses, but for the first time since playing Villanova the Lions had a higher score than their opponent when the clock struck aughts.
And I gotta say, I’m happy.
For beating a meh-to-bad Michigan State team, I’m happy.
For finally getting the monkey off Terry Smith’s back, I’m happy.
For the players that have been playing hard against a gauntlet of a schedule, I’m happy.
For Penn Staters everywhere, I’m happy.
The NFC North remained one of the tightest divisions in football after Week 11’s action.
The Detroit Lions knew what they needed to do to stay at the top of the table ahead of their Sunday Night Football matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles. The Lions entered the night in second place with a head-to-head tiebreaker over the Chicago Bears.
Let’s look at how the rest of the division played out on Sunday:
Packers 27, Giants 20
The Green Bay Packers went on the road for what was expected to be a pretty routine win against a banged-up New York Giants team on Sunday.
Plans for former Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar to have a liver transplant were scuttled last week, but Kosar announced on Sunday night that an operation is moving forward.
Kosar announced that he was scheduled for a Monday morning transplant and thanked his followers for their support. Kosar had multiple procedures last week to deal with internal bleeding after his transplant was called off because the donor organ was infected.
Kosar said last year that he has been dealing with Parkinson’s disease and cirrhosis of the liver.
