Get yourself settled in your favourite lounge chair or down at the local and take in three cracking contests as Magic Round really cranks up on Saturday.
First up it's Wests Tigers looking to bounce back after consecutive losses against a Manly team has found a new lease on life under interim coach Kieran Foran.
The Sea Eagles have won five from six since Foz took charge and their only loss was a narrow 18-16 defeat the hands of competition leaders Penrith.
And speaking of red-hot teams, no-one is going better than the Roosters, who will be chasing a seventh when they face the potent Cowboys in Saturday's middle game.
Standing in their way is a Cowboys outfit capable of big things on their day and looking to Scott Drinkwater and Jake Clifford to steer them to a fourth win in seven visits to Magic Round.
We close out Super Saturday with two last-start winners looking to build momentum in front of a big crowd - the Eels and Storm.
Parra will be riding high after pulling a great escape in Townsville while Melbourne halted a seven-game losing streak by putting the cleaners through Wests Tigers last Sunday.
