Warriors duo steps aside

Tony Iro and Stacey Jones will step away from the Warriors’ coaching team next season but will remain part of the club. Incoming coach Nathan Brown has decided to bring in Craig Hodges and retain Justin Morgan as his two assistants for 2021, while outside back Patrick Herbert won’t be offered a contract for next season and the club is looking to offload Agnatius Paasi. Iro is the longest serving member of the Warriors’ coaching team, joining in 2005, while Jones is arguably the club’s greatest player.
