No Dallin Watene-Zelezniak for at least the next month, but the Warriors look likely to welcome back Taine Tuaupiki to their NRL backline to face the Broncos

24 June 2025

Watene-Zelezniak is out for four to six weeks with a high ankle sprain suffered in the loss to Penrith.

But it's better news for fellow back Tuaupiki who has passed the HIA protocols after a sickening hit in reserve grade nearly a fortnight ago.

Coach Andrew Webster says he's ticked off everything he needed to.

The Warriors side will be named at 6pm.
