The New Zealand Warriors will head to the Gong this Friday, to take on the St. George Illawarra Dragons.
It's been a confusing season for the Dragons so far in 2024, three wins and just as many losses as they juggle a new coach, a few unhappy stars, and a desire not to repeat their poor form of seasons past.
Interestingly, it's been somewhat similar for the Warriors thus far, three wins, two losses, and coming off of a rare draw in round six against the Sea Eagles means that New Zealand will want to take down the Dragons and steady their season.

St. George Illawarra Dragons vs New Zealand Warriors tips and prediction
The Dragons have struggled for consistency this year, unable to string back-to-back wins together this season.
After losing their first two games of the year, the Warriors rattled off three straight wins, before things ended in a draw last week.
With the home team not proving to be an impressive defensive squad, plus the Warriors' fine form, they will look to make a statement in a win this Friday.
Our prediction: Warriors by 12 points
