The Warriors started the 2026 NRL season 2-0, marking only their second winning start since 2009.
Two weeks into the 2026 NRL season, and the Warriors have done something genuinely rare in the club's history.
Their two and zero record to start the season, with a 42-18 demolition of the Sydney Roosters, backed up by a 40-6 thumping of the Canberra Raiders, is the second time since 2009 the Auckland club have won their first two matches.
That historical footnote alone should arrest any instinct to wave this away as a small-sample-size aberration.
The last time they won their first two games was back in 2018. Could it be their year?
