    The Warriors have found their new number seven

    The Warriors have found their new number seven

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    Coach Andrew Webster has confirmed Luke Metcalf will take the halfback duties this NRL season, following Shaun Johnson's retirement.

    The 25-year-old started the opening pre-season game against the Sharks in the role, and will do so again for tomorrow's warm-up against the Storm.

    Webster says Metcalf's strong campaign build-up has been rewarded.
