The New Zealand Warriors have given an injury update on some key players, including Kurt Capewell, Luke Metcalf, and Dylan Walker.
It's been a tough run for the Warriors, facing off against the South Sydney Rabbitohs without Capewell, who is sidelined with a concussion and following the NRL's 11-day stand-down period.
Metcalf, who had a standout season start alongside Shaun Johnson, suffered an injury against the Newcastle Knights.
The talented halfback has undergone surgery for a tibia in his right leg and is expected to make a comeback late in the season, leaving a significant gap in the Warriors' lineup.
Dylan Walker, who missed the last two games due to an ankle injury, will continue to be out of action as he recovers.
The Warriors will need to dig deep and rally together as they face the challenges ahead without these key players.
It's a tough break for the team, but they'll need to showcase their strength and determination to push through this rough patch and come out stronger on the other side.
