The NOLA Gold travel to the Queen City to face Anthem RC in an Eastern Conference clash, with both teams desperate for a win! The Gold come into this following a tight 18-20 defeat to the Chicago Hounds in their 100th MLR game, and find themselves with a 1-5 record, while Anthem RC are still after their first franchise win. These teams have met 3 times prior to this game, with the Gold holding a 3-0 series lead. The most recent meeting between Anthem RC and the NOLA Gold was in Round 9 of the 2024 season, when the Gold took a convincing 6 try, 5-40 road victory.

Despite improved performances from Anthem so far this season, as well as the majority of both territory and possession, the NOLA Gold defence stood firm. The Gold made just under 200 tackles to stifle Anthem RC, who fell 19-33. NOLA pick up their 2nd win of the 2025 season, both of which have come against Anthem RC. Speaking of the hosts, they fall to 0-7 in 2025 and set a new record for the longest losing streak in MLR history, now at 23 games.

Anthem RC host the Houston SaberCats in a cross-conference clash at American Legion Memorial Stadium during Round 6 of MLR’s 2025 season! Both teams are fresh after byes last week, but Anthem RC are still looking for a first franchise victory. Will they get it against a formidable SaberCats side?

It was a back and forth, high-scoring game that went down to the final moments, as the Houston SaberCats were spared their blushes thanks to a last minute penalty nailed by Davy Coetzer, to bag the full 5pts in a 91pt, 14 try thriller in Charlotte! Anthem RC are getting closer to that first franchise victory, and with another two table points in this one, are moving in the right direction. Scoring 45pts and not coming away with the victory is bound to sting, however. This was the most points and tries ever scored by Anthem RC in a single game, and with 440pts scored all time, this game alone accounts for over 10% of the points the team has ever scored up to this point.

The Miami Sharks travel to the Queen City to face Anthem RC in an Eastern Conference clash in Round 3 of the 2025 MLR season. The Miami Sharks are fresh off their first win of the season over the NOLA Gold, despite another nervy finish, and Anthem RC are still looking for their first franchise victory after a disappointing 5-52 defeat to the formidable San Diego Legion.

These teams have met twice in the past, with the Miami Sharks holding a 2-0 series lead. Their last meeting came in Round 16 of 2024, when the Sharks recorded a 14-30 bonus point victory, also in Charlotte.

A truly back and forth game that saw both sides exchanging both tries and yellow cards throughout. Anthem saw themselves down to 13 men for almost 10 minutes to straddle the half, but defended admirably and led 31-22 at th 60 minute mark. The Sharks would hit back with a penalty from Martin Elias, followed by a 72nd minute try from Tomas Bekerman before Santiago Videla calmly slotted the conversion to give the visitors the narrowest of leads with 7 minutes to play. The final minutes saw plenty of changes in possession, but ultimately Anthem couldn’t crack the Sharks defence, and Miami deliver another thrilling finale to an exciting Friday night game to move to 2-1. Anthem are left imagining what could’ve been, as they secure both bonus points and come closer than ever to their first victory, but it was not to be.
