Parramatta dominate the recent head to head numbers against New Zealand having won four of the last five match ups dating back to the beginning of the 2019 season.

It was though the Warriors who tasted the most recent success taking a 46-10 victory in their only match up last season at Commbank.

The Warriors steadied the ship with a win last weekend against the Tigers after two consecutive, agonising losses.

Making finals is not out of the realm of possibility but their run home after this weekend is purely top 8 teams.

The success of the Warriors this season has rested purely on their defence. In losing games they have allowed their opponent to score an average of 28.5 points whilst in their wins that number drops drastically down to 13.75.

Massive news for the Warriors with halfback Shaun Johnson and Fullback Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad both returning from injury.

RTS moves back to the wing with Ed Kosi to the reserves. Te Maire Martin also drops out to accommodate Johnson. Tom Ale joins the bench in place of Jackson Ford who is out with a knee complaint.
