Shaun Johnson speaks after retirement at end of 2024 NRL season ...

Shaun Johnson is speaking with media today after announcing he will retire at the end of the NRL season.

The Herald will livestream the press conference above from 1.15pm.

The decision brings a close to a 14-year NRL career, with the 33-year-old halfback spending the majority of that span with the NZ Warriors, with a three-year stint at the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks as well. In 265 NRL appearances, 221 have been with the Warriors.

Johnson sits fourth on the list of all-time appearances for the Warriors behind Simon Mannering (301), Stacey Jones (261) and Manu Vatuvei (226). He helped the club to a Grand Final appearance in his rookie season in 2011 - one of just two Grand Final appearances in club history, along with 2002 - and has been in every Warriors team to make the playoffs since 2011 (2011, 2018, 2023).
