Warriors coach Andrew Webster has addressed the ongoing rumors regarding Roger Tuivasa-Sheck (RTS), who is being linked with a possible transfer to Super League's Wakefield Trinity.
Webster stated that he maintains open lines of communication with RTS, whose contract concludes at the end of this year, highlighting the clarity and understanding that exists amid the current uncertainty.
"I've had plenty of conversations," Webster remarked.
"Whichever way it goes, whether he stays or wherever he ends up, if he plays union or plays league... if he leaves, he goes with the blessing, and if there's an opportunity for him at the end of the season to stay, we'd celebrate that too."
"It will all become clearer, but we've had a really good conversation, and we're on the same page, which is always a good feeling between a player and a coach."
In addition to RTS, the Warriors are faced with crucial contract decisions this year, as several players, such as Kurt Capewell and Marata Niukore, have agreements extending beyond 2026. Niukore has already found himself linked to the Newcastle Knights.
When questioned about the rumors, Niukore dismissed them during a media interaction.
"I haven't read too much into it, to be honest," he said with a smile.
"It's pretty clichéd, but that stuff will sort itself and, over time, I'm pretty sure we'll knock it on the head, and hopefully that's it."
