The 2025 KOE NSW Cup kicks of this Saturday with the first leg of the Wilson-Blacklock Cup when Newtown travels to the foot of the mountains to take on the Panthers.

Penrith will be looking for revenge this season after the Jets won both games in 2024 to take the silverware. It would be great to see as many of the Bluebag faithful as possible at Parker Street Reserve this Saturday to cheer on our Men All Dressed in Blue as we begin the defense of our premiership.

If you cannot get to Penrith, the game is being televised on NSWRL TV on BarTV Sports.

Go the Jets!
