The Warriors have confirmed that Taine Tuaupiki will be sticking around until 2026, with the fullback securing a one-year extension with the club.
The 25-year-old player, hailing from Taharoa, first caught the eye of the Warriors during a train and trial deal back in 2022.
His stellar performances in his debut NRL season earned him a one-season contract for 2023, which was later extended through 2025.
Tuaupiki made his NRL debut in a showdown against the North Queensland Cowboys last year, a game that marked the beginning of a promising career.
This season, he has continued to impress with standout performances, including a memorable showing in the team's victory over the Penrith Panthers in May.
His dedication and talent have not gone unnoticed, as he was named the club's NRL rookie of the year for his efforts.
With Tuaupiki locked in until 2026, the Warriors are setting their sights high and gearing up for success in the seasons to come.
The young fullback's commitment to the team exemplifies the fighting spirit and determination that defines Rugby League players, and fans can expect to see more thrilling plays and memorable moments from him in the future.
