A huge congratulations to Penrith, who took out both the Interclub Pointscore and Average Points trophies! 👏

Results are still being finalised, and we estimate they will be live on the MSNSW website by next week.

We also want to say a very special thank you to Craig Smith and Mark Hepple for their enormous contribution to the event, as well as all of our officials who were on their feet constantly for around nine hours. It was a long, record-breaking day, and we are incredibly grateful to everyone who worked so hard to make it such a successful one.

Thank you also to Wett Ones, who supplied warm-up supervisors throughout the day. 💙
