In this episode of Off the Back Seat: Fan Edition, Manaia Stewart and Ben Hurley pick up Charlie Pomee in the back of a brand-new GWM Cannon Alpha Plug-in Hybrid!

What if one decision changed everything? For Charlie Pomee, it might have been picking a microphone over a football. The singer, FLAVA host and proud South Aucklander was once in the Warriors' development system, dreaming of pulling on the jersey, until injuries steered him toward music and a career as one of the country's most recognisable entertainers.

It started, like so many of these do, at the 1995 debut against the Broncos, his dad, the fireworks, the confetti, Dean Bell leading the team out. But Charlie's story has a twist the others don't: he grew up playing alongside childhood mate Manu Vatuvei, both dreaming of the NRL. One became a club legend. The other still wonders, just occasionally, what might have been.

Plus the beauties: getting mistaken for a current Warrior by Wendell Sailor at Magic Round, the family game-day ritual of chips, dip and emotional preparation, and the deeply moving story of how former Warriors players helped change his life with a school scholarship. Football, family, friendship and South Auckland, the perfect way to close the series

Save at the Pump and Go with More across the GWM Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid Range.
