    Loan player prop Jack Hetherington will make his debut off the bench for the Warriors in this weekend's NRL game against Brisbane

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    Wing David Fusitu'a returns from concussion, while Wayde Egan is back from suspension in the hooker role.

    Chanel Harris-Tevita and Karl Lawton, who can also cover the position, are named in the 17, though Lawton left the field in the first half of the loss to the Storm with a head knock.

    Forward Lachlan Burr continues to be out, after missing last week with concussion.

    Meanwhile the Warriors have signed winger Junior Ratuva through until 2022.

    He spent time in Melbourne's youth system in 2018 and was part of Canterbury's Mitre10 Cup rugby union squad last year.
