    Warriors coach Andrew Webster's reacted to former boss Ivan Cleary's decision to rest almost his entire frontline Panthers team two weeks out from the NRL play-offs

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    The four-time premiers have opted against using 16 players for tonight's match against the Bulldogs, as they now need other results to go their way to make the top four.

    Webster was in a similar situation at Penrith a few years ago, and in his first year with the Warriors in 2023.
