<p>NSW Cup Highlights - Round 12, 2025</p>
</div>
<p>Just as quickly the Warriors snapped back with four unanswered tries – all converted by Taine Tuaupiki – to take a handy 24-10 lead into halftime.<br>The start of the second half was a replica of the first, this time the Bulldogs carving up with three tries in 10 minutes – the third to former Warriors prop Zyon Maiu’u – to level up at 24-24 with 30 minutes to play.</p>
<p>But, as they did in the first half, the Warriors settled down, found their tempo and put together a run of three tries, the last a length of the field effort sparked by Sio Kali and finished by Luke Hanson with two minutes to go.</p>
<p><b>Talking Points</b></p>
<ul>
<li>The Warriors have now made it 10 wins from their past 11 games and retain a three-point lead at the top the table.</li>
<li><span>Warriors fullback Taine Tuaupiki, who has made nine NRL appearances this season, finished the game with a personal haul of 16 points from a try and six goals.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><b>Key Moment</b></p>
<p>With the Bulldogs rallying to lock the scores up 24-all at half-time, the Warriors scored twice midway through the second half to gain some breathing space at 34-24 and make the road back that little bit tougher for their opponents.</p>
<p><b>What's Next?</b></p>
<p>The Warriors head to Redfern Oval on Saturday to face the last-placed South Sydney Rabbitohs, while Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs have the bye.</p>
<h2>Jersey Flegg Cup: Bulldogs 28 def by Warriors 40, Silktails 18 def by Tigers 34</h2>
</div><div>
<p>In a high-scoring contest, the Bulldogs' Jersey Flegg Cup side were unable to claim victory in their trip to New Zealand, downed 40-28 against the Warriors at Navigation Home Stadium in Pukekohe.</p>
<p>A Cassius Tia double put the Blue and Whites in a strong position at the break, claiming a 22-6 lead after conceding the first try.</p>
<p>However, the home side swung the momentum in the second stanza to reclaim the lead, with a Bailey Myers in the dying stages the only contribution to the side. </p>
<p>Despite the loss, Tia at halfback claimed a 16-point haul with two tries and four goals in a highlight for the side. </p>
<p>Meanwhile, the Kaiviti Silktails had their own high-scoring defeat, unable to upset the Wests Tigers 18-34 at Churchill Park, Lautoko. </p>
<p>After conceding the first two tries, the Silktails clicked into gear with second rower touching down in the 22nd minute, before centre Asalusi Nagicu crossed just minutes later to level. </p>
<p>However, a late try to the Tigers gave the visitors an 18-12 lead at the break. </p>
<p>While Qoro touched down midway through the second half, a further four tries put the match out of reach for the brave Silktails, giving their opponents a sixteen-point victory. </p>
<p>In Round 13, the Bulldogs will travel to Churchill Park to face the Silktails in the second match between the two sides in 2025. </p>
<h2>Ron Massey Cup: Bulldogs 18 def by Dirty Reds 42</h2>
</div><div>
<p>The Ron Massey Cup Bulldogs travelled to Wentworth Park on Sunday afternoon, and after a close contest, were downed 42-18 against the Glebe Dirty Reds.</p>
<p>With Maila Setu and Lleyton Borg crossing within the first fifteen minutes, the Dirty Reds hit back with two tries of their own before Sheldon Abbey crossed to give the boys from Belmore a slender 14-12 lead at the break. </p>
<p>However, much like the other results of the weekend, the second half belonged to the opposition, with Glebe claiming a 42-18 victory with Carson T'Maalii scoring in the 75th minute.</p>
<p>The Bulldogs will get a well-deserved break in Round 10 of the Ron Massey Cup, before returning to the field on June 15th against Mounties in Round 11. </p> </div>
