The lock made 55 tackles in round three against the Roosters, with the next best Keaon Koloamatangi on 37.<\/p>\n

Teammate Jacob Host explained a rest on the sidelines at training was deserved for Murray. \ufeff<\/p>\n

"He has that 'no self-preservation attitude' so we need to keep him on ice and give him a bit of a rest because he deserves it," Host told The Sydney Morning Herald<\/a>.<\/p>\n

"I think it was more to make sure his body is right going into this weekend. He puts so much heart and soul into every training session let alone games.<\/p>\n

"It's so important to have our captain out there. He's an inspirational and special player."<\/p>\n

Despite a concerning start, winger Alex Johnston compared the side's current fortunes to how they started in their premiership year in 2014.<\/p>\n

"It got brought up by Tom Burgess … in 2014, after our first four games, we'd only won one and we're in a similar position," he told media on Monday.<\/p>\n

"We need to win, we want to win and that's what we've got to aim for this week. That was a pretty good year for us."\ufeff<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
