New Zealand Warriors vs Newcastle Knights Preview

The Warriors enter this Anzac Day clash atop the NRL standings, while the Newcastle Knights are struggling to find any consistency. After a tough loss to Melbourne, the Warriors bounced back with a gritty win over the Broncos, despite being hit with several injuries. Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad and Rocco Berry return to strengthen their squad, with rookie Leka Halasima set to make an impact off the bench. On the other hand, the Knights have lost their last four games and have scored just five tries during that stretch. Despite having attacking threats like Kalyn Ponga and Bradman Best, Newcastle’s struggles have been apparent, especially away from home. With the Warriors’ strong defensive record and the Knights’ poor form, the hosts are clear favourites for this encounter.
