The talented outside back was a border at St Joseph’s College in Hunters Hill and moved on to represent Eastern Suburbs in the Shute Shield after school. Newsome was a member of the NSW U20s team in the 2015 season, he then went into a very successful NRC season for the NSW Country Eagles in 2016. He earned a reputation for scoring intercept tries in 2016 scoring 3 for the Country Eagles.
Newsome earned a trial with the Western Force in the preseason before signing a deal for the 2017 season. The NSW country product returns to the Waratahs in 2018 after a strong NRC showing particularly at outside centre.

Since his debut, Newsome has become a regular in the Waratahs' squad making 48 appearances for the side before the 2020 Super Rugby season was brought to a halt.
