Former Newcastle and St George Illawarra boss Nathan Brown will coach the Warriors in 2021 while league legend Phil Gould will be a consultant, it was confirmed on Saturday. In the league’s worst kept secret, Warriors CEO Cameron George revealed Brown would takeover from interim boss Todd Payten from next season. Brown signed a three-year deal to become the successor of Stephen Kearney who was sacked in June. “He has had an extensive involvement in the game as both a first-grade player and then as a coach in the NRL and the Super League. I just love coaching and this job with the Vodafone Warriors is a fantastic opportunity,” Brown said.
