Warriors interim coach Stacey Jones opens up on the decision to bench Reece Walsh 📝

“I think he has responded to what has happened really, really well and he had a great training session out on the field, so that seems to be a good sign.It isn’t the only change in the spine for the Warriors ahead of round 19, with mid-season recruit Daejarn Asi getting the nod at five-eighth ahead of rookie Ronald Volkman.

Volkman, who debuted in round 15 and then backed up the following week against the Wests Tigers, wasn’t selected in the NRL squad last week after contracting a virus, instead playing for the club’s feeder side the Dolphins in Queensland’s Hostplus Cup. Harris meanwhile said he is continuing to feel more comfortable in his return from the ruptured ACL which ended his 2021 season, revealing the injury is also the reason for his move to being predominantly a middle forward rather than playing in the second row.

Last Friday’s 28-18 loss to the Eels was arguably the best performance of the year for Harris, who topped the tackle count with 44 and ran for 170 metres in a 70-minute stint.

Everything said is correct. When’s SJ going to get thrown into the bin then?

Totally agree. Kids got talent, defence ain’t one of them. Plenty of fumbles too. He isn’t scoring tries and usually his defence or mistakes are costing 1 or 2 tries a game. He is lively yes, but it’s not converting to points.
