    Ahead of the Warriors' first NRL trial game tonight against the Sharks, a senior player has admitted he was shocked to learn of captain Tohu Harris's sudden retirement

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    Walker says what made Harris's announcement tough was the fact it came halfway through pre-season.
