Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad and Rocco Berry are set to make their return to the NZ Warriors team for their upcoming Anzac Day match against Newcastle.
Nicoll-Klokstad, who was out due to concussion, will resume his role at fullback while Berry, who was serving a suspension, will be back in the centre position.
Jackson Ford will also be celebrating his 50th appearance for the club in this historic game.
The Warriors are coming off a gritty golden point victory over the Broncos, and with Nicoll-Klokstad and Berry back in the lineup, the team is looking to continue their strong start to the season.
Kurt Capewell, who filled in for Berry in the centres against Brisbane, will move back to the second row.
This will make for a young interchange bench, with players like Demitric Vaimauga, Bunty Afoa, and Jacob Laban all under 21 years old.
The Warriors currently sit in fourth place on the ladder with 10 points, thanks to their impressive 4-2 win-loss record.
This start to the season is one of the best in the club's history, with only two other seasons surpassing it in the past 30 years.
As they prepare to face the Knights, it will be the 52nd meeting between the two teams, with each side having 25 wins and one drawn match.
The return of Nicoll-Klokstad and Berry, along with Ford's milestone appearance, adds a sense of excitement to the upcoming Anzac Day clash.
The team is looking to build on their early success and continue their strong form against Newcastle.
With a balanced lineup and youthful talent coming off the bench, the Warriors are poised to make a statement in this important match.
