The New Zealand Warriors have announced their team update for their upcoming match against the Newcastle Knights, with Halfback Tanah Boyd and winger Edward Kosi retained from the extended bench.
This decision comes as three players, including halfback Te Maire Martin, prop Tanner Stowers-Smith, and hooker Sam Healey, were omitted from the squad.
Additionally, fullback Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad and centre Rocco Berry are set to return after missing the previous match due to concussion and suspension, respectively.
Front rower Jackson Ford will also mark his 50th appearance for the club in the upcoming game.
The Warriors have been performing well this season, currently sitting fourth on the ladder with a 4-2 win-loss record.
Their recent victories against the Brisbane Broncos and Wests Tigers have contributed to their strong start, with their performance being compared to only two previous seasons in the club's history.
The return of Nicoll-Klokstad and Berry will see Taine Tuaupiki moving back to the right wing to replace Kosi, while Berry will take back his position in the centres from Kurt Capewell.
The team's strong performances have been attributed to their teamwork and determination, as they continue to strive for success in the season.
Overall, the New Zealand Warriors are gearing up for another important match, with key players Boyd and Kosi remaining in the lineup.
Their recent successes have put them in a favorable position on the ladder, and fans are hopeful for another strong performance in the upcoming game against the Newcastle Knights.
