Warriors halfback Shaun Johnson will be sidelined for at least four weeks due to the re-emergence of an old Achilles tendon injury.

The 33-year-old was sidelined last month through a combination of the achilles issue, as well as a pectoral muscle strain.

He returned in Round 15 before suffering a hamstring strain in last weekend's heavy loss to the Titans.

Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave unpacked what this loss means for the Warriors.
