Away games against the Illawarra Cutters and Wests Tigers have been confirmed for the opening two rounds of the Vodafone Warriors’ 2016 New South Wales Cup campaign.
Like the club’s NRL team, the Stacey Jones-coached NSW Cup side won’t play at home until the third round when it meets the Newtown Jets at Mount Smart Stadium on March 20 followed by a clash against the Wyong Roos on Mount Smart Stadium No 2 on Sunday, March 27.
Two more road trips follow giving the Vodafone Warriors four away games in the first six weeks of the season but they have back-to-back home games against the Mounties and the Penrith Panthers to wind up their regular season.
