After conquering the NSW Cup, the Newtown Jets will face Queensland's Norths Devils for NRL State Championship supremacy on Sunday.
The Jets bested the North Sydney Bears 28-22 last weekend to hoist the NSW Cup for the first time since 2019. Just as they famously did five years ago, they'll now aim to complete the double by emerging victorious on Grand Final day at Accor Stadium.
Niwhai Puru, who was crowned Man of the Match in the decider against the Bears, is one of several Sharks-contracted players who will turn out for Newtown.
Braden Hamlin-Uele, Sam Stonestreet, Billy Burns, Chris Vea'ila, Tom Rodwell, Liam Ison, Jayden Berrell, Mawene Hiroti and Tuku Hau Tapuha will also be pivotal for the Jets.
Norths Devils booked their place in the State Championship showdown by defeating the Redcliffe Dolphins 34-20 in the Queensland Cup finale.
Kick-off is at 1.20pm. Watch live on 9.
