The 2010 New South Wales Cup was the 103rd season of New South Wales's top-level statewide rugby league competition. The competition was contested by 12 teams over a 30-week season (including finals), which concluded with the 2010 Grand Final at ANZ Stadium in Sydney.
Competition changes
Following the 2009 season, Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs would rejoin the competition after winning the premiership competing as the Bankstown City Bulls. NRL team Melbourne Storm ended their association with the Central Coast Storm, forming their own team for the 2010 season.[1][2] Central Coast would remain in the competition with the assistance of the Newcastle Knights as the Central Coast Centurions,[3] thus expanding the competition to 12 teams.
Season summary
Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs would claim the minor premiership on the final day of the season, thrashing Melbourne Storm 66–12 to secure the title on points difference from Balmain Ryde-Eastwood Tigers.[4] North Sydney Bears finished with the wooden spoon, having won only five games for the season.

Grand Final
Minor premiers Canterbury won the Grand Final on the back of a strong performance from Josh Reynolds who scored two tries and set up a third. The Bulldogs dominated the first half, scoring 16 unanswered points, setting up the victory with a strong defensive display. Windsor playmaker Maurice Blair was forced from the field early in the second half after suffering a suspected broken jaw, after fighting with Bulldogs interchange player Corey Payne. The second half was played in heavy rain, and Windsor threatened to come back into the contest with 20 minutes remaining when Jesse Sene-Lefao caught a pinpoint Craig Trindall kick, but the contest was over when Reynolds scored his second try from a 90-metre intercept.[9][10][11]
