The Jets return to their spiritual home this Saturday hoping to end a two-game losing streak that has seen them drop to 4^th place on the ladder. Our Men All Dressed in Blue take on a Canberra Raiders team brimming with NRL experience who themselves are hurting after last week’s loss to the Warriors. The Raiders defeated the Jets convincingly when the teams met in Round 5. We need as many of the Bluebag faithful as possible at Henson on Saturday to cheer on the mighty Bluebags and help get them the win.

Weather permitting, there will be plenty of fun to be had on the DEICORP Family Hill with FREE jumping castles & face painting to keep the kids entertained. Ice Cream Joe’s Mr Whippy & Barista will be in attendance, whilst Philter’s Henson Park Draught, XPA and other tasty brews are available for all the Mums, Dads and over 18s along with Kraken & Cola and Kraken & Dry courtesy of Kraken, the exclusive dark spirits partner of the Newtown Jets in 2025.

Newtown Jets’ home game raffle is on again 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 biscuits 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 5.30pm to mingle with players and coaching staff and hopefully celebrate a victory. Henson Park Hotel is located at 91 Illawarra Road, Marrickville.

We also encourage you to take advantage of a fantastic offer from Chargrill Charlie’s on your way there. Located at 186 Victoria Road, Marrickville, pick up a flyer at the game and you’ll receive 10% off your order. Better still, if the Jets win, you’ll get 15% off… how good?!
