Warriors props Addin Fonua-Blake and Ben Murdoch-Masila have received praise for their generous act of kindess on the way to training this morning.

The two new recruits were spotted roadside at Tuggerah, on the NSW Central Coast, replacing the flat tyre of an older woman's vehicle during a torrential downpour.
