Mazzone Named in 2026 NSW Cup Team of the Year

South Sydney Rabbitohs winger Jordi Mazzone has been rewarded for a standout NSW Cup season, earning selection in the 2026 The Knock-On Effect NSW Cup Team of the Year.

Mazzone was named on the wing in the NSW Cup's best 13 following an outstanding individual campaign for South Sydney, establishing himself as one of the competition's most dangerous attacking players.

The Rabbitohs flyer finished the NSW Cup regular season as the competition's leading try scorer with 23 tries, while his 25 line breaks were also the most of any player in the competition.

Mazzone's impact extended well beyond finding the try line, averaging 143 running metres per game across his NSW Cup campaign and providing the Rabbitohs with a consistent threat coming out of the backfield.

His ability to turn opportunities into points was on show throughout the year, with Mazzone scoring three or more tries in four separate NSW Cup matches.

The impressive campaign earned Mazzone one of the two wing positions in the NSW Cup Team of the Year alongside Penrith Panthers winger Jesse McLean.

Mazzone is the sole Rabbitohs representative in the side, with his selection recognising an impressive 2026 NSW Cup season in South Sydney colours.

The Knock-On Effect NSW Cup Team of the Year is selected by nswrl.com.au based on player performances throughout the NSW Cup regular season.
