    The Warriors have found their new number seven

    The Warriors have found their new number seven


    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.
