Aussie Rules tales on warriors.kiwi are telling the tale about how the Warriors are making waves on the world stage.

Over the weekend, six Kiwis from the New Zealand Warriors - along with two players set to join the team - represented their respective countries in some hard-hitting matches.

Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad, Shaun Johnson, Marata Niukore, and incoming Warrior James Fisher-Harris gave their all for the Kiwis, but were faced with a tough opponent in Australia.

Mitchell Barnett and his Aussie teammates came out on top with a 22-10 victory at Apollo Projects Stadium.

Apii Nicholls, who is set to make her return to the Warriors in the NRLW next season, showcased her skills as fullback for the Kiwi Ferns.

Despite a valiant effort, the Kiwi Ferns fell short with a 0-14 loss to the Jillaroos in a physical showdown in Christchurch.

Later in the day, Roger Tuivasa took to the field as fullback and Jazz Tevaga played a vital role as hooker for Toa Samoa.

The team faced tough competition against England, ultimately suffering a 18-34 defeat in the first Test match in Wigan.

The Warriors are proving themselves on the international stage, showing that they are a force to be reckoned with in the world of rugby league.
