Thought I'd put together a Warriors quiz to help anyone beat the boredom of lockdown. Feel free to have a go, just chuck your answers in here and I'll tally up the results in a week or so. Don't go researching or Googling things! There's 20 questions, hopefully a good mix of easy ones and head-scratchers. If nothing else it might remind you of happier times.
1: In which year did the Warriors make the finals for the first time?
2: Who scored the match-sealing try in our 2002 Qualifying Final win over the Cronulla Sharks?
3: Who scored the match-sealing try in our 2011 Qualifying Final win over the Melbourne Storm?
4: Who was the opposition in the Warriors first ever Golden Point match?
5: Who is the only Warrior to have played more than 100 games coming off the interchange bench?
6: In which Aussie state do the Warriors have the highest winning percentage?
7: The Warriors played one Premiership match at Forsyth Barr Stadium in Dunedin in 2017. Who was the opposition?
8: Which opposition team has the best record at Mt Smart Stadium by winning a whopping 73% of their matches there?
9: Matthew Ridge was on the Warriors books for three seasons (1997, 1998, 1999). Out of a possible 66 Premiership matches across those seasons, how many did Ridgey play?
10: The last time a Warriors player was sent off was in Round 19 2007 against the Wests Tigers. Who was it?
