Calling all Jets fans to get along to Redfern Oval this Sunday

The Newtown Jets go into Round Three of the Canterbury Cup NSW this Sunday at Redfern Oval, still looking to open their account in this year’s competition. Near-neighbours South Sydney are in third place and won’t be out to do the Jets any favours. The Rabbitohs are back in the NSWRL flagship competition under their own name for the first time since 2006, and it has been many years since Souths and the Jets have met at Redfern Oval (now the Metricon High Performance Centre) in a competition match. Please note the earlier kick-off time of 1.10pm.
