Macarthur Wests Tigers – Laurie Daley Cup: Semi Final

The Macarthur Wests Tigers will host the Laurie Daley Cup semi-final against the Newcastle-Maitland Region Knights this Saturday at Dudley Chesham Sports Ground, The Oaks. 

Daniel Milford’s side remain unbeaten in 2026, coming off a dominant 40–8 win over the South Coast Illawarra Steelers in Round 6.

The squad has impressed across the board this season, with key forwards captain Keynan Pes, Kye Penfold and Daniel Lafolafo leading the way, while backs Harry Bickhoff and Drake Ayers continue to shine.

A win this weekend would see the side travel to Port Macquarie for NSWRL Regional Representatives Grand Final Day.

Milford has made minor changes to his last squad with Ashton Tsagalas joining the starting line-up on the wing.
