Warriors captain Tohu Harris has inked a fresh one-year deal, giving the club an off-season boost.
Harris still had a year left on his current contract, with this new one to keep him at Mt Smart Stadium until the end of the 2025 NRL season.
Harris has spent the past six seasons at the Warriors, where he has played 117 games and scored 18 tries.

The 2024 season will be his third as skipper.
"It's tremendous for us knowing we'll have Tohu for another season," Warriors recruitment boss Andrew McFadden said.
"He has been so critical in helping us to where we are today, a job he started in the tough times away from home in Australia."
Warriors' Dally M coach of the year Andrew Webster – who himself only recently signed a new deal to keep him at the club until the end of 2028 – said he is a "huge fan" of Harris.
"He's an unbelievable player and person who means so much to our club," Webster said.
"Without him and his leadership on and off the field we certainly wouldn't be where we are right now.
"When I first talked to him before returning here I was so impressed by his passion and what he wants for the club … now he has the opportunity to take the team further as we seek more improvement."
Harris will be reunited with his predecessor Roger Tuivasa-Sheck in 2024.
The Warriors will kick their campaign off with a home game against the Sharks on March 24.
