Has Mitch Barnett closed the Warriors’ 2025 Premiership window? | League Of Our Own - S2 EP15

Since the NZ Warriors confirmed the extent of co-captain Mitch Barnett’s season-ending ACL injury, we can’t help but wonder how it’s going to hinder the side for the rest of the campaign.  So, with that in mind, we ask the BIG question: Has the Premiership window closed on the Wahs for 2025?

Without Mitch however, it provides an opportunity for not only Jackson Ford to start against the Sharks, but a number of others to come into the selection frame during the backend of the season.  Tanner Stowers-Smith is on the bench, Tom Ale in the extended squad…  and what about Bunty Afoa?

Rocco Berry can’t catch a break, because he’s broken down again.  The Real Big Dog has tweaked his hammy.  When will he be injury-free and get a decent run of games?!

And because we are at the halfway point of the regular season, we reveal our Form Kiwi 13, as picked by League Of Our Own selectors Blairy & Goran.  Our choice of dummy half is what we’d call an innovative choice!
