The latest news out of warriors.kiwi is that the Warriors are gearing up for a tough challenge on a special day for star player RTS.
Squad depth will be crucial for the boys from One New Zealand as they face off against South Sydney at Accor Stadium today in the NRL.
The Warriors will be missing five key players, totaling a whopping 700 NRL appearances between them, due to various injuries.
However, on a brighter note, fullback Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad is making his long-awaited return to the field for his first game of the season.
In response to the lineup shuffle caused by the injuries, head coach Andrew Webster has made some strategic changes, bringing in Te Maire Martin to fill in for the absent Luke Metcalf and Adam Pompey to replace Dallin Watene-Zelezniak.
It's a test of the team's depth and resilience as they look to overcome the odds and secure a win against a tough opponent.
The Warriors will be looking to turn the tide in their favor, as South Sydney has dominated their recent matchups, winning their last eight encounters in a row.
But as they say in Rugby League, anything can happen on the day.
The Warriors will need to dig deep and draw on their fighting spirit to come out on top in this crucial showdown.
Go the mighty Warriors!
