ONE title in the Central West Rugby Union season 2026 has been decided, with Yeoval defeated in the Oilsplus North Cup grand final last Saturday by Blayney.
The Eagles put up a spirited fight, but it wasn’t to be.
All eyes now switch to the Molong Recreation Ground for premiership games in the New Holland and Women’s North cups.
Molong’s First Graders will take on Narromine for the third time in five weeks, after the Gorillas convincingly disposed of Mudgee last Saturday.
The Magpies Second Grade squad fell heartbreakingly close to joining their big brothers, with a two-point preliminary final loss to Wellington.
In the Women’s North Cup Parks will take on Mudgee, after crushing Wellington 36 to 3.
