The Vodafone Junior Warriors have climbed into the S G Ball Cup’s top four following their outstanding 38-14 win over Cronulla-Sutherland in today’s fourth-round match at PointsBet Stadium in Sydney.
There was no indication in the opening 35 minutes that the Vodafone Junior Warriors were about to make such a statement.
Having conceded the first try of the match they replied through hooker Taniela Otukolo to lead just 6-4 at halftime. Otukolo maintained his record of scoring in each of the side’s matches in their debut campaign, lifting his total to six already.
The second half provided a complete transformation.
Through tries to T J Devery and Jeremiah Asi, both converted by sharpshooter Sione Moala, the Vodafone Junior Warriors shot to an 18-4 lead.

They were momentarily stalled by a second Sharks try before another two-try salvo, Moala converting both and kicking a penalty to take the lead out to 32-8.
A third Cronulla try was followed by the visitors’ sixth and final try to standoff Sebastyan Jack. Moala made it six from six to complete a 38-14 demolition.
It was the third time in four starts the Vodafone Junior Warriors had topped 30 points taking them to fourth on the ladder.
