## Resource

Warriors coach Andrew Webster is speaking out against online trolls, calling them cowards for hiding behind screens to hurl hate at players like Adam Pompey. While he avoids social media himself—seeing it as a distraction—he’s been targeted by fake news even about his family. He knows the negativity seeps into his players’ minds, affecting their focus and sleep. In stark contrast, he’s witnessed a heartwarming shift in real-world fan support in New Zealand, where people greet him warmly and respectfully—a far cry from when he first arrived in Auckland. Now, he’s committed to shielding his team from digital toxicity while fostering a supportive, positive environment that helps them thrive on and off the field.
