There were four Warriors involved, Roger Tuivasa-Sheck and Chanel Harris-Tavita for Toa Sāmoa and Leka Halasima and Demitric Vaimauga for Tonga.
Tuivasa-Sheck was all hustle and bustle at fullback, providing the same level of involvement he consistently did on the wing for the Warriors this year. He finished with 26 runs, 296 metres and 100 post-contact metres.
Four Warriors NRLW players helped the Cook Islands Moana to victory over Tonga in the Pacific Bowl, clinching a famous title success for the island nation.
