In the wake of this week’s ownership announcement, club owner Autex Industries hosted a Vodafone Warriors contingent at the company’s headquarters in Auckland.
Vodafone Warriors CEO Cameron George was joined by head coach Stephen Kearney, captain and 2019 Simon Mannering Medal winner Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, 2019 clubman of the year Jazz Tevaga, assistant coaches Stacey Jones and Todd Payten and Canterbury Cup coach Nathan Cayless plus the 19th Vodafone Warrior Sir Peter Leitch.
Vodafone Warriors chairman and Autex managing director Rob Croot confirmed at the Simon Mannering Medal event on Tuesday night that the Autex had completed negotiations to buy out the Carlaw Heritage Trust’s 67 per cent shareholding.
On Thursday, Autex owner and CEO Mark Robinson together with Croot took the Vodafone Warriors’ representatives on a tour of Autex’s facilities meeting staff along the way.
