🔥 THIS WEEKEND AT THE TURF IS ABSOLUTELY LOADED 🔥

Saturday at 5pm is the big one.

The Warriors take on Manly, and we’ll be watching the boys chase history as they look to become minor premiers.

This is not a couch game.

This is a cold drink in hand, big screen, full pub, every tackle matters kind of game.

And at the same time, the Mako take on Wellington, so the screens are going to be working overtime.

Then once the sport settles down, The Bragg Band hit the stage and turn Saturday night all the way up.

🎸 Friday - Toadstool live
🏉 Saturday - Warriors v Manly | 5pm
🦈 Saturday - Mako v Wellington | 5pm
🎶 Saturday - Bragg Band live
🥩 Sunday - $2,500 MEGA Meat Raffle

Big sport. Big bands. Big meat raffle.

And maybe, just maybe, a massive Warriors moment.

See you at The Turf.

How good is this!

Yesterday I was lucky enough to receive a signed Tasman Mako FPC team jersey, and I have to say, it’s pretty special seeing The Turf Hotel sitting proudly on the front.

We’re incredibly proud to support local sport, especially a team full of talented, hardworking players representing our region with so much passion.

This one won’t be getting tucked away in a cupboard.

It’ll be framed, mounted, and given pride of place in the bar where it belongs.

Huge thanks to the Tasman Mako FPC team. We’re proud to be part of your journey and we’ll be backing you all the way.
