  • The Venn diagram of pain. Round 15.
    Jun 16 2024

    For twenty minutes the Warriors looked awesome. They led the Storm 14-nil, the big crowd at Mt Smart was in fine voice, and they had all the ball. And then the Storm got their hands on the pill, and they did what the Storm have done for 16 matches in a row against the boys from New Zealand: just grind out a win. We'll hear what coach Andrew Webster thought of the performance. Also: Des Hasler and Ricky Stuart unhappy with their team's efforts. A masterclass in crankiness.

  • Warriors have an abundance of riches. Round 14.
    Jun 9 2024

    Warriors 42, Cowboys 12. Never in doubt this one. Coach Andrew Webster and skipper Tohu Harris were very relaxed, and happy at the post-game media conference. And for good reason. A big win and more troops returning in the next few weeks. Good times for Warriors fans. Not so good for Tigers coach Benji Marshall. And why was Craig Bellamy unhappy with the Storm's win over the Knights?

  • The University of Rugby League semester break. Round 13.
    Jun 2 2024

    The Warriors had a bye, so we take the opportunity at the season's halfway mark for our report card of the Warriors in 2024, so far. The Cowboys are next, giddy-up! Craig's Raiders had a golden point win over the Dolphins. Kiwis legend Jordan Rapana got the Green Machine over the line, but Wayne Bennett was salty at the referee. We also hear from Warriors CEO, Cameron George, on the battle between rugby league and rugby union for the hearts and minds of New Zealand's players and fans.

  • Belief. Warriors looking good. Round 12.
    May 26 2024

    A few weeks ago, it was all doom and gloom for the Warriors. Now, they head into the bye looking good, and with a host of players set to return. Mt Smart was jumping, including Nik, Ben and Craig. Lots to get through this week. Warriors 24, Dolphins 20; Andrew Webster happy, Wayne Bennett not so much; Addin Fonua-Blake under a cloud; Origin teams named and who's going to make the finals? We're out at the start of the week before sunrise, so you can get it first, and impress your footy-loving friends at work with your Warriors knowledge after listening to the NRL Reax!

  • Warriors beat Panthers with "a reserve grade team". Round 11.
    May 19 2024

    Panthers coach Ivan Cleary bristled at a suggestion that his side lost to a "reserve grade team", but well, it almost was. Missing several stars, the Warriors beat the defending champs, 22 points to 20. How exciting for Nic and Ben, who have a spring in their step this week. Craig was happy as well with the Raiders win, and the nice tribute paid to Kiwis great, Quentin Pongia after the win over the Bulldogs.

  • A juggernaut coming at us. Warriors in trouble. Round 10.
    May 12 2024

    British rockers, Status Quo, sum up the Warriors current problems best: "Down down deeper and down...". Roosters 38, New Zealand's finest, 18. No way to sugar coat this, the Warriors are in a hole. Ben and Nik do their best to find a way forward, but with injuries mounting, and the Panthers up next, it's looking grim. This is serious folks! Craig sat back, smiling, with the Raiders having a bye. We're out at the start of the week before sunrise, so you can get it first, and impress your footy-loving friends at work, with the NRL Reax!

  • Don't panic! It's only the Roosters. Round 9.
    May 5 2024

    It's 4 o'clock on a chilly Monday morning, and the comfy studios of The Sound in Auckland resonates with disappointed Warriors fans, Nik and Ben. Another loss. Knights 14 Warriors 8. 14th on the ladder, and now they play the high flying Roosters. Craig was pretty chirpy after the Raiders comeback victory over the Sea Eagles, and he reckons the Warriors will beat the Chooks. We also hear from every NRL captain at their press conferences, which is very, very rare. Usually, they just sit next to the coach and nod. We're out at the start of the week before sunrise, so you can get it first, and impress your footy-loving friends at work, with the NRL Reax!
