The Warriors website is buzzing with excitement as they announce their team list for the upcoming clash against the Melbourne Storm.
Headlining the news is the return of the seasoned halfback Shaun Johnson, who is set to make his 263rd career appearance after missing the last three matches due to a pectoral injury.
The anticipation is palpable as fans gear up for the sold-out showdown at the Go Media Stadium this Saturday at 7:30 pm.
Adding to the excitement is the imminent return of the experienced centre Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, who has been sidelined with a hamstring injury since the 10th-round match against the Sydney Roosters.
While he has been named on the extended bench in jersey #20, head coach Andrew Webster is eyeing his comeback for the round 16 clash against the Gold Coast Titans on June 22.
With Johnson back in action, Te Maire Martin will shift to the standoff position after impressing at halfback in the past three games.
Utility player Chanel Harris-Tavita, who started at #6 in recent matches, has been named on the interchange to provide versatility and cover for multiple positions.
The Warriors are coming off a strong performance, boasting an impressive 84 percent completion rate and dominating in various key statistical categories against the North Queensland Cowboys.
With their sights set on taking down the competition leader, Melbourne Storm, the team is fired up and ready to make their mark on the field.
