The NZ Warriors have announced their line-up for their upcoming round 25 encounter with the Manly Warringah Sea Eagles.

Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad and Bunty Afoa will be returning to the team, while Mitchell Barnett has been ruled out of the match.

Nicoll-Klokstad missed the previous game due to NRL concussion protocols, while Afoa had a successful stint with the club's New South Wales Cup side.

Taine Tuaupiki will be replaced by Nicoll-Klokstad, and Afoa will step in for the injured Barnett.

The Warriors have a chance to extend their winning streak to six matches, following victories over Parramatta, Cronulla Sutherland, Canberra, Gold Coast, and the Wests Tigers.

The last time the Warriors achieved six consecutive wins was 21 years ago in 2002, when they went on to make the grand final.

This feat was also accomplished by the original Warriors team in 1995.
