    Warriors coach Andrew Webster reckons former All Black Richie Mo'unga would thrive in rugby league

    Warriors coach Andrew Webster reckons former All Black Richie Mo'unga would thrive in rugby league


    The first-five's revealed he nearly switched codes to join the Warriors in 2019.

    Mo'unga has spent time in the New South Wales training camp this week, ahead of tonight's State of Origin decider against Queensland in Brisbane.

    Webster says the playmaker would fit straight in, but was mindful of his words.
