New Zealand Warriors veteran forward Jazz Tevaga has officially confirmed his move to another NRL team after nine seasons and 138 matches with his former team.
A stalwart of the club since his arrival on the scene in 2016 and a homegrown talent, Tevaga has been a key player off the interchange bench for many years and was even awarded the inaugural Dally M Interchange Player of the Year in 2018.
The 28-year-old has managed 19 appearances this season, where he has scored one try, made 27 tackle busts and 374 tackles and ran on average 90 running metres per match.
A four-time international forย Samoa, he is looking forward to the next chapter in his career but will miss the passionate Warriors fanbase.
