The New Zealand Warriors had their best season since 2002 & 2007 last year, when they finished fourth on the NRL ladder at the end of 27 rounds. This year, the ‘Wahs’ have added premiership and State of Origin veteran second-rower Kurt Capewell to their side, along with former Warrior Chanel Harris-Tevita and superstar Roger Tuivasa-Sheck.
In 2024, will the Warriors be able to get one step closer to playing in another Grand Final and winning the clubs first NRL Premiership?

Roger Tuivasa-Sheck returns to the Warriors from a relatively successful stint in Rugby Union that saw him represent the All Blacks on multiple occasions. For many years at the Warriors, Tuivasa-Sheck was in a side that struggled to own the battle in the forwards to put points on the board. Now, led by halfback Johnson with Addin Fonua-Blake and Tohu Harris in the middle, with a stack of great young players coming through the ranks, the Warriors are putting themselves in a position to win a premiership. Tuivasa-Sheck could be one of the final pieces of the puzzle to achieve that goal.

Wayde Egan had brilliant stints in the NRL last year, broken up in patches due to unfortunate concussions. In 2023, his growing combination with Shaun Johnson will be imperative to the Warriors success, meaning he will need to avoid long stints on the sideline. If Egan can stay fully fit, he will likely be a key, underappreciated part of the Warriors premiership puzzle.

Jackson Ford had a brilliant 2023 NRL season, solidifying a starting 80-minute role on the edge for the Warriors before struggling with the week-in-week-out grind of the NRL. The addition of Capewell to this side will be brilliant for Ford’s development into the future, particularly in the way he defends. If he can continue his development on the offensive side of the ball, he will become one of the club’s best forwards.
Serious talk of a NZ-based team joining the NSW Rugby League first arose during the expansion push of the 1980s. Years of campaigning bore fruit in 1995, when the Auckland Warriors were admitted to the newly formed Australian Rugby League. The club switched to the rival Super League for the 1997 season and then joined the reunified NRL in ’98.
Auckland’s early years were a struggle both on and off the field, so much so that the club was sold in 2000 and rebranded as the New Zealand Warriors. Turning their focus to unheralded local talent, the new-look Warriors marched to their first finals campaign in 2001 and were losing grand finalists in 2002 after claiming the minor premiership.
A return to hard times was not far away, however. The Warriors finished second from bottom in 2004, 11th in 2005, and 10th in 2006 when they had premiership points deducted due to salary cap breaches the previous season. Ivan Cleary took over in ’06 and steered NZ to three finals series in five years, but the club has struggled to impact the upper half of the table since the 2011 NRL Grand Final defeat to Manly.
