The Warriors endured a disappointing season as they finished well outside of the finals.
After capturing the hearts of New Zealand in 2023 with their run to the preliminary final, they fell well short of expectations, and will be looking to bounce back in a big way in 2025.
Part of that are some new signings, including four time premiership winner James Fisher-Harris, but it means some players will have to make way as a result.
One such player is a long-serving forward of the club who has become popular during his tenure at the Warriors.

Jazz Tevaga off to the Sea Eagles
Jazz Tevaga has signed a one-year deal with the Manly Sea Eagles, beginning in 2025.
The 29-year-old, who is able to play at lock as well as spending time at hooker in his career, announced he would be leaving the Warriors earlier in the season.
"Jazz has played in finals and has had a lot of experience over there in New Zealand. He has also represented Samoa," Manly coach Anthony Seibold said in a statement.
"He brings that grit and toughness to what we have already got here [and] we feel like he will be a good addition to our group."
It marks the first time Tevaga will play at another club, as he has spent his whole career at the Warriors until now.
He was a part of the 2014 Holden Cup Grand Final winning team at the club, where he started at lock before going on to make his first-grade debut in 2016.
It took him a bit of time to regularly work his way into the lineup, eventually doing this in 2018 as he became a rotation option off the bench. His impact off the pine saw him named the 2018 Interchange Player of the Year at the Dally M Medal awards night.
During his spell at the Warriors, he would represent Samoa four times and the Maori All Stars twice, whilst playing 138 club games and scoring nine tries.
He bolsters Manly's forward options for 2025 as they look to build on a solid season under Seibold, where they finished seventh and made it to the second week of the finals.
