Jazz Tevaga returns on the bench for the Warriors ahead of their first NRL finals match in five years when they face defending champions the Penrith Panthers on Saturday evening.
The 28-year-old missed the last three games of the regular season with a hamstring injury picked up in the round 24 win over the Wests Tigers in Hamilton.
It was only his second match back in a season in which the imposing middle forward has been limited to just eight games.
The match kicks off at 6.05pm NZT and is a repeat of the Warriors’ last finals match in week one of the 2018 playoffs when both sides were placed in the bottom half of the top eight.
The Panthers defeated the Warriors 27-12. Fan favourite Dallin Watene-Zelezniak was at fullback for Penrith that day.
