Another NRL season, another prime time TV bonanza for Brisbane.And NRL CEO Todd Greenberg is making no apologies.The Broncos were again one of the big winners on Thursday as the 2017 draw was unveiled.In what has been a sore point for rivals for years, Brisbane received the lions share of TV games.The Broncos play on Thursday or Friday night in 10 of the first 11 rounds next year.Greenberg defended Brisbanes dream schedule, saying it was what the TV sponsors wanted.Our broadcast partners pay significant premiums and, rightfully under this model, they have the ability to choose certain games and the Broncos are very valuable for them, he said.So we understand that.Rival clubs might not be so understanding after Brisbane received six Thursday, seven Friday and five Saturday night games next season.They have just one five-day turnaround in the first 20 rounds.But Greenberg insisted Brisbane didnt get all of their draw demands.It would be fair to say, if you ask the Broncos, they would like to play more Sunday afternoon football but its hard to make everyone happy, he said.Brisbane CEO Paul White sounded happy after the 2017 draw.The Broncos open the season away against defending champions Cronulla before their first home game - a derby blockbuster on March 10 against North Queensland.We have not had the Cowboys as the first home match of the season since 2014, White said in a statement.Considering the fantastic contests we have had over the last year or two, we deemed it imperative to make it our first home game of the 2017 season.The first two months of the season will be full of huge blockbusters against top-rated teams, which is a huge win for our members and supporters.Brisbane next season face four teams who finished higher than them in 2016 plus finalists Canterbury in the first five weeks.

MILAN -- Roma won the battle for second place in Serie A as it beat AC Milan 1-0 on Monday to move three points clear of the Rossoneri and four behind league leader Juventus.Radja Nainggolan scored the only goal shortly after the hour. Roma goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny saved a first-half penalty from MBaye Niang.Roma visits Juventus on Saturday.What was important was to win and we showed character because Milan was well organized, Nainggolan said. Last year maybe we didnt win these kind of games, even if we played better. But this year we have more character, we have an aim and we want to believe in ourselves.Well have to fight also in Turin and well play to win.Milan, which is one point above fourth-placed Napoli, hosts Atalanta in the next round.Its an undeserved defeat, Roma was lucky, Milan coach Vincenzo Montella said. But we are on the right path. And we are at a good point: the Europa League is our aim.Montella had mixed thoughts over the failed penalty.Before the match I repeated to the team that (Niang) would still be the penalty taker, because I think hes the one who shoots the best, he said. Who will take the next one? Theres time, well see.Both Roma and Milan were locked on 32 points going into the match in Rome, which got off to a frantic start. Milan goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma had his gloves stung by a rocket from Edin Dzeko, while Milan went close too on the counter.Roma was dominating while Milan appeared content to sit back and try to surprise the home side on the counter. That tactic almost paid off in the 27th minute.Gianluca Lapadula ran onto Andrea Bertolaccis pass, prodding it as Szczesny came for the ball and the Roma goalkeeper took his ankles instead, resulting in a penalty.Niang had seen his penalty saved by Crotone goalkeeper Alex Cordaz in the last round but the Frenchman stepped up again, only for Szczesny to redeem himself by blocking the spot kick.Dzeko almost gave Roma the lead in the 36th as he beat the offside trap to run onto Antonio Rudigers long ball but sent his efffort wide of the far post.ddddddddddddRoma broke the deadlock in the 62nd when Kostas Manolas headed a ball down to Nainggolan, who raced toward goal before curling a delightful effort into the left side of the net from just outside the area.The final stages of the match were played out at a furious tempo but without any real goalscoring opportunities.The only negative note for Roma was the sight of Bruno Peres being stretchered off in tears toward the end of the first half after injuring his left leg.---FIORENTINA 2, SASSUOLO 1Nikola Kalinic ended his goalscoring drought at the Stadio Artemio Franchi in style with a first-half double to propel Fiorentina to victory over Sassuolo.Kalinic had scored twice for Fiorentina at home in the Europa League this season but all his six goals in the league had come on the road. The Croatia forward hadnt found the back of the net at the Franchi in Serie A since a 2-1 defeat to Juventus in April.Kalinic scored his first in the 10th when he sprung the offside trap and found himself in lots of space to hook a volley over Sassuolo goalkeeper Andrea Consigli and into the far top corner from 12 yards (meters).Sassuolo continued to press but was thwarted several times by fine stops from Fiorentina goalkeeper Ciprian Tatarusanu.Kalinic doubled his tally five minutes from halftime when he cheekily backheeled Federico Chiesas low cross in off the inside of the post.Sassuolo got back into the match in the 75th with a chaotic goal following a corner. Tatarusanu saved one effort and others were blocked by the Fiorentina defense before the ball fell to an unmarked Francesco Acerbi, who fired into the bottom right corner.Fiorentina moved into seventh place, but has played a match less than most other teams. Its game at Genoa was suspended after 27 minutes on Sep. 11 at 0-0 because of heavy rain and the remainder of the 90 minutes will be played on Thursday. ' ' '
