New recruits Dallin Watene-Zelezniak and Chad Townsend have come straight into the Warriors team for the 16th-round NRL clash against the St George Illawarra Dragons at Central Coast Stadium on Friday night.
Watene-Zelezniak and Townsend only trained with the squad for the first time on Monday, but they were always
going to be picked, given their combined experience of 330 NRL games.
On the debit side, Reece Walsh will miss the match, due to the hamstring strain that forced him out of the second State of Origin clash on Sunday.
That means captain Roger Tuivasa-Sheck will start at fullback, for only the second time in the last five games, since Walsh's blazing arrival on the NRL scene.
Euan Aitken and Josh Curran were also unavailable for selection, as they serve time in isolation for the next two weeks.
