Participating in the dress up, Mudgee Newsagency owner/manager Rachel Brown said the reason for her decorations are not only to support the local teams, but also for one of their very own.
"One of our junior staff members, Campbell Lee actually plays for the Wombats and is in the grand final this weekend so we thought it was very appropriate to not only support the local team, but because he's our staff member," she said.
"I haven't watched enough rugby this year to make a prediction, though I'm sure they will do really well."
The Mudgee Wombats under 16s will face the Orange Emus at 12pm, followed by the Mudgee women against CSU at 1.40pm, and the first grade batties at 4.45pm.
Games will be played at Glen Willow Stadium, with tickets to be purchased ahead at www.123tix.com.au.
COVID-19 rules and social distancing measures will apply on the day for spectators.
