Corey Harawira-Naera admits complacency and inconsistency have prevented him from reaching his full potential, but is hoping a move to lock will help him finally piece it all together.
The Canberra forward has been named at No.13 for the Raiders’ season-opening trip to North Queensland, getting first crack at the role vacated by Adam Elliott’s move to Newcastle.
Harawira-Naera, a former New Zealand international, got a run at lock last season but primarily had to accept a bench utility role, his versatility seeing him cover the centres along with forward positions.
