Excitement is building ahead of Balmain Junior Rugby League’s Grand Final weekend at Leichhardt Oval.
Hundreds of aspiring rugby league players will take to the same field as their heroes on Saturday and Sunday, as they play in their very own ‘big dance’.
A number of Wests Tigers players including Daine Laurie, Brent Naden, Jacob Liddle and Alex Twal will be there on Saturday to show their support to our local juniors.
