Warriors v Wests Tigers: SJ may play; Koroisau a chance

The Warriors suffered a heartbreaking 20-18 loss to the Raiders in their last game where they outscored their opposition four-tries-to-three, but were only able to convert one of them.

The side were also hit with further injury blows, with fullback Taine Tuaupiki (head knock) and Adam Pompey (knee) - their two first-choice goalkickers for the game - ruled out in the first half.

Both appear unlikely to be available for the must-win match against the Tigers, however in some good news, winger Marcelo Montoya and star half Shaun Johnson are a chance of returning from injury.

After putting in what coach Benji Marshall lamented as their worst performance of the season in their Round 19 loss, the Tigers showed plenty of spirit in their high-scoring game against the Bunnies in Round 20, even leading a stages before going down 42-28.

This week, they will be without experienced halfback Aidan Sezer who accepted a two-week ban after being hit with a Grade 2 Dangerous Contact charge for a tackle on Bunnies fullback Jye Gray. 

Marshall will however be hoping to have the services of his captain Api Koroisau who has been sidelined with a calf complaint, while Alex Lobb, Alex Seyfarth and Justin Olam could also come into contention.
