Summary
Dallin Watene-Zelezniak just locked in an eight-year contract extension with the New Zealand Warriors, cementing his future with the club through 2028 — and he’s already hit 100 games for them. The explosive winger, who joined in 2021, has become a fan favorite and team identity, scoring 75 tries for the Warriors and adding 16 this season alone — including a hattrick and multiple doubles. Coach Andrew Webster called him not just a star player but a positive force, praising his leadership and family values. With a hamstring tweak sidelining him briefly, the Warriors are hopeful he’ll return for their clash against the Wests Tigers, while also bolstering their winger depth with new signings.
