Warriors Christen New Stadium with Dominant Win over Cowboys
The Warriors scored multiple tries and overcame a 10-minute Jason Taumalolo sin-binning as contentious bunker calls shaped the match.
- On Sunday, the Warriors defeated the North Queensland Cowboys 38-20 in Christchurch's new Te Kaha Stadium, with Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad scoring four tries in the venue's opening NRL game.
- Warriors coach Andrew Webster shifted Nicoll-Klokstad to the wing for the first time since 2017, labeling him 'Mr. Versatile' and 'elite' despite his preferred fullback position.
- Jackson Ford, Warriors prop, suffered a pectoral injury during the match, jeopardizing his New South Wales State of Origin debut. Coach Webster said, "We don't know if it's minor big."
- North Queensland suffered a third-straight defeat, compounded by Jason Taumalolo's 10-minute sin-binning for a lifting tackle early in the match.
- The ninth-placed Cowboys face ladder-leading Penrith next week as they fight to put their season back on track after consecutive defeats.
