The Warriors centre Konrad Hurrell reportedly won't be able to make his Kiwis debut due to a scaphoid fracture which requires surgery.
And Melbourne fullback Billy Slater's also reportedly set to have surgery on a shoulder injury he picked up during State of Origin.
Both players apparently played on with the injuries, with Slater having painkilling injections.
