Clinton Toopi: Former Warrior on the team's performance, consistency, upcoming clash with Manly
About this episode
Clinton Toopi discusses the Warriors' current performance and consistency ahead of their match against the Manly Sea Eagles.
The Warriors are in a rare position. They're sitting atop the NRL ladder, points differential putting them just ahead of the Panthers, and have a solid shot at the minor premiership. They face the Manly Sea Eagles this afternoon, and a big win will go a long way to helping them secure the title they haven't won since 2002. Former Warrior Clinton Toopi told Piney it's exciting to see 'consistency' and 'Warriors' used in the same conversation. He says it's a beautiful thing and something to be proud of, and even in his era they probably didn't have the same consistency this current team has been able to produce.
