Original plan before thougher lockdown rules where brought in was to base The Warriors permanently in Australia until the crisis was over . I'd guess it wil still be the same , bring them over the wait 14 days to let them self isolate . It's all down to money and the clubs desperate need for cash 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all down to money and the clubs desperate need for cash True but the I don't see any of the Warriors players wanting to fly over unless their familys can join them(they were planning on bringing them over before the lockdown). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's come up a few times in the interviews I've heard sand it's been said that the current crisis could be used as a chance to push the reset button when the next bunch of player contracts are renegotiated 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
