The Warriors' biggest off-season signing, Sam Tomkins, will make his National Rugby League debut from fullback in the club's season opener against the Parramatta Eels on Sunday.
Tomkins, who came from the English Super League club Wigan, will make his first Warriors appearance along side fellow newcomers, Jason Bukuya and Chad Townsend.
Townsend gets his first chance to impress in the halves, starting at standoff, alongside the halfback, Shaun Johnson, while Bukuya starts in the second row.
The former Warriors under-20 star, John Palavi, also makes his first-grade debut starting at lock.
The centre, Konrad Hurrell, has failed to make this side, with Carlos Tuimavave named to start with Dane Nielsen in the centres.
