The New Zealand Warriors have wrapped up an unbeaten pre-season with today's impressive 36-10 win over the Melbourne Storm in Hamilton

15 February 2025 - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

The NRL trial was a game of two halves ... the Warriors scored seven tries to none in the first half to lead 36-nil at the break ... before their visitors scored the only two tries of the second spell.

Wing Roger Tuivasa-Sheck scored two tries ... he told Sky Sport it was an encouraging start.

Though it's only pre-season, it's the first victory of any sort for the Warriors over the Storm since 2015 ... a 17-game losing streak.
