Riley Price, son of former Warriors captain Steve Price, has signed a two-year deal with the club, continuing a family connection that runs through one of the more successful periods in the team's history.

Recruitment of this kind carries obvious storyline appeal, but the club's interest is grounded in squad depth. Two-year terms for developing forwards give coaching staff continuity without committing top-end salary cap space.

Steve Price captained the Warriors during a period when the club established itself as a genuine finals contender, and remains one of the more respected figures in its playing history.

For the younger Price, the challenge is the familiar one facing any second-generation professional: the name opens the door, and everything after that is measured on performance in first grade.
