The Late Mail - Warriors v Knights

Warriors v Newcastle Knights
Mt Smart Stadium - Sunday 2:00pm

Time for some footy back at Mt Smart! The Warriors will make just one change to Tuesday's named side, with Siliva Havili to start at hooker, meaning Nathan Friend will instead make a run off the interchange later in the contest.

Newcastle will miss Kurt Gidley (thigh), Jeremy Smith (sternum) and Kade Snowden (neck) from the named side, which sees a range of changes. Carlos Tuimavave will come in and start at five-eighth, while Korbin Sims is promoted to starting prop. Jack Stockwell has been named to replace Smith at Lock. Joe Tapine and Sam Mataora come in on the bench. Mataora and Tuimavave are Knights debutants having come from the Warriors and Raiders in recent seasons.
