Team List Tuesday – Rabbitohs v Bears

It’s Team List Tuesday – Rabbitohs v Bears. There is no first grade until 2024 but Bunnies TV will continue to report on our NSW Cup teams finals run.

The Rabbitohs’ NSW Cup team will do battle with the North Sydney Bears in the major semi-final. This is the second week of the NSWRL Finals Series this Saturday 9 September at 5pm at Leichhardt Oval. The victor then earns a spot in the NSW Cup Grand Final. 

A Win Over The Warriors

The Rabbitohs defeated the Warriors in last weekend’s qualifying final, earning the right to take on the minor premiers in week two of the finals.

The winner of this match subsequently will move on to the Grand Final to be played on Sunday 24 September, with the loser to play the winner of the minor semi-final between the Warriors and the Canberra Raiders in the preliminary final on Saturday 16 September at Leichhardt Oval. 

The Team

Darrell Lea

The confectionery company Darrell Lea was founded in Sydney by an English immigrant, Harry Levy, in 1927, and named after his youngest son. Harry’s foundation product was Bulgarian Rock, a type of hard nougat. The company remained in family hands until 2012 when it was put into receivership and sold. The new owners then closed the famous stores and the products are now only available in supermarkets and independent retailers.

Harry Levy and his wife began selling homemade confectionery through their fruit shop in Manly, then opened a shop in Sydney’s Haymarket in 1927 and introduced the Darrell Lea brand. Over the next 10 years, they opened more stores in Sydney and by 1936 had moved their manufacturing operation to premises under one of the arches of the new Sydney Harbour Bridge. These were the Depression years and Darrell Lea profited by selling their confectionery for half the price of other brands.
