Mitchell Robinson

William Flint and Luke Mulligan headlined this group, as it is their first time being named in this squad. They joined fellow Penrith members who have been in the squad for a number of seasons. 

The squad also welcomed back Association Life Member Dan Olford as the Strength and Conditioning coach for the second year. Dan provides a wealth of knowledge not only in the strength and conditioning space but also the refereeing space, where he shares his experience from his career. 

Today marks the beginning of the Junior Representative season. 8 of our members will take the field, 3 members will be making their debut in their respective grades. We also have 2 members taking up coaching positions. We wish all members luck with their appointments and their season. See the full appointments below:
