The One New Zealand Warriors, similar to their NRL counterparts, are looking to secure their fifth straight win. They are gearing up for their 11th-round New South Wales Cup face-off against the Roosters. The highly anticipated match is scheduled to take place at Wentworth Park in Sydney on Sunday, with a 1.00pm local time kick-off and 3.00pm NZT.

Strong Start and Recovery
The Warriors had a promising start to their 💙 Mighty NSW Cup campaign with four consecutive wins. Despite a disappointing home loss against the Newtown Jets, they quickly bounced back to their winning form. The team displayed an impressive comeback with a 40-12 victory over the Dragons, followed by triumphs against the Knights (30-18), the Bears (56-14), and the Raiders (46-30). These victories have solidified their position at the top of the ladder with a commendable 18 points.

The Warriors' standing has been further boosted as the Jets lost games in the last two rounds. They now enjoy a three-point lead over the Dragons and Eels, with Newtown trailing behind at 14 points.

In their recent four matches, the Warriors have demonstrated both offensive and defensive prowess by accumulating 172 points and conceding just 74. Their most points conceded in a game so far was 30 against Canberra last week.

Previous Encounter with the Roosters
The last time the Warriors faced the Roosters, they celebrated a significant victory, particularly thanks to Te Maire Martin's performance. The team secured a 46-12 win at Go Media Stadium. On that day, the team fielded a strong lineup with significant NRL experience, including players like Tanah Boyd, Bunty Afoa, Rocco Berry, Morgan Harper, Edward Kosi, Tom Ale, and Freddy Lussick.

Current Team Line-up
This week, fewer players with NRL experience are available, with only Boyd, Harper, Ale, and Lussick named in the squad on Tuesday. However, more could join the roster when the NRL lineup is confirmed.

In Boyd, the Warriors boast the competition’s top points scorer with 89. Back-rower Kayliss Fatialofa, after his hat-trick, has eight tries, just three behind the leading scorer, Penrith’s Asu Kepaoa.

The Roosters have named winger Dominic Young and former Warrior Chad Townsend to face the Warriors this week. They currently sit seventh on the table, having won their last two games against the Bulldogs and the Sea Eagles.

Overall, the One New Zealand Warriors' fans are eagerly anticipating the team's performance in the upcoming match, hoping for a fifth consecutive win.
