Melbourne Storm winger Will Warbrick will join the New Zealand Warriors on a three-year deal from next season, returning home after establishing himself as one of the NRL’s most effective outside backs.
The Kawerau product’s arrival follows confirmation that Roger Tuivasa-Sheck will depart the club at season’s end for a move to England.
Warbrick reinforced his attacking impact with a four-try performance in round four and has scored 43 tries in 60 appearances since debuting in 2023, alongside international honours with the Kiwis.
Warriors officials praised his rapid rise, athleticism, and professionalism, while coach Andrew Webster highlighted his aerial strength, work rate, and pedigree from Melbourne’s system.
A former All Blacks Sevens player and Olympic silver medallist, Warbrick has transitioned seamlessly to league, averaging strong running metres and bringing proven big-game experience from consecutive grand final campaigns.
