The Warriors' heritage will be front and center as they take on their traditional rivals, the Brisbane Broncos, at Go Media Stadium.
This match-up harks back to the explosive clash on March 10, 1995, when Dean Bell led the original Auckland Warriors onto the field at Ericsson Stadium.
In their 722nd game in the competition, the Warriors are looking to recapture their edge after a tough week.
The players will be donning a replica of their beloved 1995 away strip, paying homage to the club's roots.
The presence of former players at the Warriors' annual old boys' reunion adds to the heritage atmosphere.
These rugby league legends will be lining up to form a guard of honour for the team during warm-up and will be introduced to the crowd before the NRL showdown.
Furthermore, the halftime presentation by match day sponsor One New Zealand will have a strong heritage theme, celebrating the history and legacy of the Warriors.
As the teams take the field, the spirit of the past will be alive and well, adding an extra layer of excitement to this classic rivalry.
