The South Sydney Rabbitohs are heading back to Mudgee in central west New South Wales, and tickets are now on sale for our NRL Pre-Season Trial against the Manly Warringah Sea Eagles at Glen Willow Stadium.
It’s become a tradition that Rabbitohs Members and supporters in regional New South Wales look forward to each year, and 2026 will be no different as we take on the Sea Eagles on Sunday 22 February in what promises to be an afternoon of quality Rugby League.
A Day of Football
This isn’t just about the main event. Glen Willow Stadium will host a full day of football, giving fans the chance to settle in and enjoy multiple matches.
Gates open at 1pm, with a men’s first grade trial curtain raiser between the Western Rams and Northern Tigers, kicking off at 1:40pm. The NRL pre-season trial between the Rabbitohs and Sea Eagles will then take centre stage at 4pm.
It’s the perfect opportunity to see our NRL squad in action as they build towards the 2026 season opener against the Dolphins in Brisbane on Sunday 8 March. Pre-season trials offer a unique chance to watch the team’s preparation, see new signings in the red and green for the first time, and get a glimpse of rising stars pushing for NRL selection.
