Game Of Bros

Atua has chosen his angels Pani and Pani to find warriors of Polynesia; we search high and low and find 12 warriors; led by Maori expert Eds Eramiha, our warriors will need to show just how well they can compete.

Our ancestors were known as navigators and voyagers of the sea; testing if warriors of today may possess those same skills; nine contestants pit their wits and their wiles against each other in a challenge like no other.

Eight remaining warriors face their hardest challenges yet; Wairangi Koopu will test their agility and coordination in Poi Rakau, then our warriors will need to show their strength and endurance in the fruit carrying race.

Our angels Pani and Pani are hungry and our warriors have to feed them; without using modern technology our warriors will need to peel a green banana, remove the seeds from a pawpaw and make the ultimate raw fish from scratch.

Across all cultures there is a tradition of manaakitanga and gift giving; inspired by the Samona tradition of Si'i Alofa, warriors are required to carry delicate gifts by demonstrating balance, strength, stamina and focus.

Our warriors have shown us their physical, mental and creative abilities; they try to woo a goddess; our final five warriors will need to light the fire of Mahuika, charm the Beautiful Laka or compete to gain the heart of Sina.
