'He’s a natural leader and someone the boys follow into battle. He doesn’t ask anything of his men that he’s not willing to do himself – the sure sign of a true leader.'
After being saddled with captaincy responsibility at the end of 2021, following Roger Tuivasa-Sheck's departure from the club, the 31-year-old was tasked with leading the Warriors through the most difficult season in their history last year, which culminated in a 15th-placed finish and an eventual roster overhaul.
"No captain would know, because they've never experienced what Tohu and the team had to there," Betham said. Having captained the club through the first part of their pandemic era, Tuivasa-Sheck is well placed to understand what Harris had to juggle within the group and said his former club and Test teammate was a natural fit for the role.
Club favourite Kevin Campion, who alongside Stacey Jones led the Warriors to their first ever finals appearance in 2001, likened Harris' leadership style to that of Broncos and Maroons great Allan Langer."He doesn't say too much, a very quiet character.
