Summary
The Warriors are set to host their first NRL playoff game this Saturday at Mount Smart Stadium, defying pressure to move to Eden Park for bigger revenue. CEO Cameron George passionately defended staying home, honoring loyal fans and the team’s identity. A win against the Dolphins could secure a second home playoff, while a loss leaves their next venue uncertain. Unlike Cronulla, who’s been relocated to Sydney, the Warriors have a storied — albeit underwhelming — history at Eden Park. With finals fixtures locked in, including Souths vs Newcastle and Penrith vs Roosters, the spotlight is on the Warriors: a victory here isn’t just about advancing — it’s about keeping their heartland alive.
