Twelve National Rugby League, including the Warriors will relocate to three Queensland hubs on Wednesday for at least one month to ensure the competition continues.
Nine teams from Sydney along with Canberra Raiders, Newcastle Knights and Warriors will all move to southeast Queensland amidst concerns about the number of COVID-19 cases in Sydney.
The remaining NRL teams - three from Queensland and the Melbourne Storm - will continue to be based in their home cities. The plans are awaiting final approval from the Queensland government.
Each team's bubble will include a combined 41 players and staff, with family members also able to join after 14 days of quarantine on arrival in Queensland.
Players will remain under the same bio-security restrictions enforced by the NRL last month, limiting their movements to games, training and essential household tasks for at least two weeks.
The Warriors are 13th on the table after losing 20-12 to the Sharks last night.
