The Warriors are preparing for one of their biggest matches in recent memory. 

They're hosting the Dolphins tonight in the qualifying round – the winner moving straight onto the preliminary finals. 

Hooker Sam Healey told Piney their record-breaking regular season showed they were doing something right, but they're not satisfied yet.  

He says they're definitely proud of what they've done, but they're looking forward as well as they have their eyes on a bigger prize at the moment.

Rugby's Greatest Rivalry is heading across the Atlantic for its final test. 

After the Springboks secured two back-to-back victories, the All Blacks will need to claim victory in Baltimore, or the Boks will claim the series overall. 

Os du Randt played 18 tests against the All Blacks, and told Piney that growing up, Springboks would always say that testing yourself against the Kiwi side is the ultimate goal and ultimate achievement. 

He says versing the All Blacks is immense – you know you're going to be tested on every level.

It's been a gutting morning for the All Blacks, with the Kiwi side losing to the Springboks 29-24 in Soweto.

Ardie Savea has a dislocated shoulder, Quinn Tupaea a damaged knee and Luke Jacobson has injured a tendon in his elbow - meaning three key players will be out of commission for the final test in Baltimore.

While the All Blacks lick their wounds on the flight to the United States they're sharing with the Springboks, coach Mike Blair joined Piney to discuss what went wrong.

The Warriors are in a rare position. 

They're sitting atop the NRL ladder, points differential putting them just ahead of the Panthers, and have a solid shot at the minor premiership. 

They face the Manly Sea Eagles this afternoon, and a big win will go a long way to helping them secure the title they haven't won since 2002. 

Former Warrior Clinton Toopi told Piney it's exciting to see 'consistency' and 'Warriors' used in the same conversation. 

He says it's a beautiful thing and something to be proud of, and even in his era they probably didn't have the same consistency this current team has been able to produce.
