This week in the Niche Cache we start with a few musical memories before embracing the present moment with NZ Warriors, who continue their reliable consistency through the 2026 NRL season. We weave in a few Dragons thoughts, kiwi coaches losing and a Warriors women update before checking in with how the NZ Breakers squad is looking. The NZ U18 basketball team has won their first three games at the Asia Cup and Cashmere Technical is in both the Chatham Cup and Kate Sheppard Cup finals to be played in Christchurch. Chris Wood was joined by Tyler Bindon in a preseason friendly for Nottingham Forest, Alex Paulsen's piling up pressure on Max Crocombe in the Aotearoa goalkeeping ranks and Finn McKenlay's got a new opportunity in Ireland. We finish with some NZ-A squad battles ahead of the Top End T20 tournament.
