WEEKEND RECAP 🦀❤️

This weekend we took a squad of 25 players bonded by a jersey, a shared love for the game and one common goal: connection.

For most of us, our regular competitions see us lining up against each other, or life simply gets in the way. But footy has a way of bringing mates and family back together. There’s nothing better than staying connected through a brotherhood like this.

We also had 10+ legends behind the scenes coaches, strappers, League Safe, water runners and all-round good humans who gave up their time to help. To our staff, thank you. To the players who put their bodies on the line for this jersey, thank you. It’s hard to truly put into words how proud and grateful we are of every single one of you.

Game 1 – 8:45am vs Grizzlies
A hot start to the day against our old rivals. As always, they were physical and ready to put a shot on. We lost two troops early but stood strong.
Winners 16–0.

Game 2 – 11:00am vs Cabbage Tree
The side that knocked us out last year this one meant something. One of the toughest games we’ve played in three years. Full credit to Cabbo, but it was our time. We lost another player but kept marching.
Winners 19–12.

Game 3 – 1:00pm vs Ron Swan Memorial
Another strong outfit that pushed us all the way. We stuck solid, defended tough and earned it.
Winners 24–12.

Semi Final vs Galamaay Connections
A stacked side with a healthy bench and plenty of class. An unreal game of footy that went right to the wire. We showed enormous heart in the second half and nearly snatched it late, but they were too strong on the day.
Galamaay 16–10.
They went on to win the KO full credit to them.

To our amazing sponsors both on the Coast and out west in Moree none of this happens without you. Your support keeps this team together and keeps country rugby league strong for the next generation. We wear your logos with pride every single time we pull on the jersey.

Year three at this event and we’re only getting stronger. More connected. Closer as a family.

We’ve set a standard now the draw doesn’t matter, the opposition doesn’t matter. We know what’s required of us as players, support staff and volunteers. And that’s enough.

We’ll keep blooding young players. We’ll keep building this family. The Mudcrabs are growing not slowing down.

364 days until we run it back.

See you soon 🦀❤️

Next Saturday the 24th we have an open training session @ rex hardaker at 3pm everyone is welcome bbq and beers provided followed by raffles and some refreshments at the plantation hotel. Hope to see everyone there for our first raffles and training sesh of the year ❤️🦀

Jersey design for 2026 campaign, this year we went with our OG colours from the first year. And added some beautiful indigenous artwork from the talented local Gumbaynggirr artist . We are so grateful for our major sponsors again . Country rugby league simply does not survive without the backing of local businesses and people who are willing to invest back into their community. We have amazing sponsors both from the moree area and the mid north coast. Your sponsorship goes far beyond logos on jerseys. Your help keeps mate ship together and alive. 🦀👣🏉
