Warriors Tweak SG Ball halves for clash against Roosters
Head coach Adam Blair has adjusted his halves combination for the One New Zealand Warriors’ sixth-round SG Ball Cup encounter with the Sydney Roosters at the Trusts Arena in Waitakere on Sunday (1.00pm kick-off).
In an otherwise unchanged side, he has called up De La Salle College product Phranklyn Mano-le-Mamea for his debut.

Mano-le-Mamea, who was 18th man last week, comes in at standoff with William Piliu moving to the bench after starting in the #6 jersey in each of the team’s first four matches.
After winning their first three matches, the One New Zealand Warriors suffered a reverse last Sunday when they fell to an 18-40 defeat to Newcastle after holding a 12-10 lead at the 23-minute mark.
