Following a grueling battle on enemy territory against Newcastle, the NZ Warriors are riding high on a three-match undefeated streak as they gear up for their upcoming 10th-round clash against the Sydney Roosters at North Harbour Stadium this Sunday at 10.00am.
After clinching their maiden victory of the season against St George Illawarra, the Warriors continued their winning ways with a 28-20 triumph over Penrith.
They then showcased their resilience and determination by securing a hard-fought 14-14 draw against Newcastle last weekend.
Despite the challenging weather conditions, the Warriors put on a commanding performance, dominating possession with 56 per cent control of the ball.
Their superior completion rate of 80 per cent, along with just 15 missed tackles compared to 30, and nine errors versus 14, highlighted their prowess on the field.
With two wins, a draw, and five losses from their eight matches so far, the Warriors have shown remarkable improvement since their early season struggles when they suffered hefty defeats in the first three rounds, conceding a total of 116 points.
As they prepare to face the Roosters in their next battle, the Warriors are poised to continue their winning streak and build on their newfound confidence and momentum in the Jersey Flegg Cup.
