KEY POINTS:
The New Zealand Junior Warriors will join the club's senior team in playing their rugby league grand final in Melbourne on Sunday.
The Junior Warriors finished third when the National Youth Competition (NYC) finished over the weekend, earning them a game against sixth-ranked St George-Illawarra.
The match isn't in Auckland because the home finals formula used in the National Rugby League (NRL) doesn't apply.
The game kicks off at Olympic Park at 3.45pm (NZ time), serving as a curtain-raiser to the eighth-placed New Zealand Warriors' NRL playoff match against minor premiers Melbourne at 6pm.
The Warriors are one of only four clubs with teams in both the NRL and NYC finals.
