We’re back!
The wait is finally over. Newtown returns to its spiritual home Henson Park for the first time in 2024 when we take on a red-hot Canberra Raiders who are currently on top of the table.
The Jets are two wins from three to start the season but will have to improve on last week’s performance against the Magpies, where a 79th minute field goal from Niwahi Puru was the difference between the two teams, if we are going to challenge the Green Machine.
Above said, our Men All Dressed In Blue will be keen to impress the Bluebag faithful, so be sure to get along to the Jewel in the Crown of Rugby League grounds this Saturday to cheer them on.
There will be plenty of fun to be had on the DEICORP Family Hill with FREE jumping castles, face painting & pass the ball to keep the kids entertained. Ice Cream Joe’s Mr Whippy & Barista will be in attendance, next to the Main Canteen whilst Philter’s Henson Park Draught, XPA and other tasty brews are available for all the Mums, Dads and over 18s.
Newtown Jets’ home game raffle returns featuring a delicious Meat Tray from Dulwich Hill Gourmet Meats along with our famous Fruit & Veg box courtesy of Bobby and Chris Petersen, a case of Henson Park Draught care of Philter and some yummy Jets cakes thanks to J Kreations. So as Lynchy always says… ‘Dig deep & support the Jets’.
After the game, the Jets invite members, supporters and friends to the Henson Park Hotel from 5.45pm to mingle with players and coaching staff and hopefully celebrate a victory. Henson Park Hotel is located at 91 Illawarra Road, Marrickville.
If you cannot get to Henson Park this Saturday, the game is being televised on NSWRL TV.
Please be advised that due the imminent redevelopment & upgrade of the King George V Memorial Grandstand, there is no parking inside the ground for the general public.
