Warriors star Roger Tuivasa-Sheck could be side-lined for the Warriors for eight weeks with a hamstring strain sustained in the win over the Sydney Roosters last weekend.
The former Dally M Medal was injured in the second half before leaving the field at Mt Smart
LATEST HEADLINES:
Elsewhere in the squad Rocco Berry returns in the centres, with Adam Pompey moving to the wing for Tuivasa-Sheck for the Warriors' fourth-round NRL encounter with the Wests Tigers at Campbelltown.
Berry is recalled to starting lineup for what will be his 44th game after missing the club's last 13 matches following a season-ending shoulder injury in round 15 in June last year.
Apart from Berry and Pompey the remaidner of the frontline 17 named is the same as the group used in the opening rounds against Canberra, Manly and the Roosters.
There are two changes on the extended bench with hooker Sam Healey back for Freddy Lussick after a week off with injury and Edward Kosi returning.
The Tigers have the same 2-1 record this season as the Warriors. They narrowly lost to the Knights in round one before beating the Eels and then the Dolphins.
