    Coach Gordon Walker always had an inkling kayaker Lisa Carrington would commit to the sport beyond the Tokyo Olympics

    Coach Gordon Walker always had an inkling kayaker Lisa Carrington would commit to the sport beyond the Tokyo Olympics


    The 32-year-old has committed to a fourth cycle through to Paris 2024.

    Walker says Carrington told him roughly a year ago she had a strong feeling she would continue.



    The Warriors could find themselves with another quality half on the roster for the 2022 NRL season.

    The club has agreed terms with former Gold Coast playmaker Ash Taylor on a train and trial basis.

    CEO Cameron George likes the depth they're building in the halves department.



    NRL CEO Andrew Abdo is lauding the inclusion of the 17th franchise in the competition as a landmark moment in rugby league history.

    The Dolphins will be the fourth team out of Queensland, joining the Broncos, Titans and Cowboys from 2023.
