TWL 2026: Ep 24 - Half The World Away feat. Grant Rovelli

Will caught up with Grant Rovelli to walk through the underrated playmaker's rugby league journey, which took him from Mackay to Sydney Roosters, onto a career-defining stint with the Warriors and a boyhood dream realised at the Cowboys, before finishing back in Mackay. Warrior #127 also provides his thoughts on the current team's trajectory and comparisons to the overachieving 2007-08 combination that he was such a vital cog in.
