A boost for the Warriors with second-rower Marata Niukore listed to make his first appearance of the NRL league season on Sunday in the home game against the Knights

The forward has missed the opening three rounds after suffering a pre-season foot fracture.

Assistant coach Stacey Jones says Niukore will be welcome.

Roger Tuivasa-Sheck is at fullback in place of Taine Tuaupiki, who is out due to the competition's 11-day concussion protocol.

Adam Pompey will line up at left centre, while hooker Wayde Egan and utility Dylan Walker have been listed to return from injury.
