Following a gutsy win over the Newcastle Knights at home, the Warriors hold their heads high as they hit the road over to Australia for the second time this season.

This weekend they try to make it three wins on the trot coming up against the South Sydney Rabbitohs, in what will be a real test of character to see if the Warriors can rediscover their away form from last season.

Latrell Mitchell and the men in green and red should never be taken lightly though. After a horrible start to their season that’s seen them sitting second to bottom of the table, they appear to be mounting a comeback, notching up their first win against the Bulldogs last weekend. They’ll be looking to get one up over the Warriors to get their season back on track.
