The Warriors have taken to television production as open season approaches in the player market.
Sky Television services were used to film the club headquarters, the players at training, in the gym and on the Ericsson Stadium green. There are scene-setters around the city, interviews with coach Daniel Andersonand the Australian players, including Jason Death, Kevin Campion and Ivan Cleary.
Cleary is featured with his wife and two children.
The anti-tampering restriction comes off on June 30. The Warriors are preparing to send the tape to player agents and are already contacting some to register interest in the footballers they want to target. That is as far as they are allowed to go now. Money talk is banned.
The Warrior's priority this week, while the NRL takes a break and focus shifts to State of Origin game one, is to extend the contracts of the young stars like Henry Fa'afili, Francis Meli, Clinton Toopi and Monty Betham.
Then the club will open negotiations with those on one-year deals, and older players, including Richie Blackmore.
The Warriors are happy with co-captain Campion's selection for Queensland and the signal it sends to Australians that players are not out of that country's representative frame if they shift across the Tasman.
The Warriors were keen to promote Anderson as the new breed of career coach. The flair shown by the team was helping that, and the video would push it and so would Campion playing for Queensland, said chief executive Mick Watson. The image the club wanted to project was that "you can grow a rep career from here."
"We're proud of Kevin. He was thinking about the end, going to Europe, and he's come here and resurrected his career," Watson said of the 29-year-old's first selection for State of Origin.
Campion is the only Warrior in action this weekend. The remainder of the starting 17 have a five-day break until Saturday to recover from niggling injuries.
