The Warriors captain Roger Tuivasa-Sheck will return to the starting lineup for the side's NRL match against the struggling North Queensland Cowboys in Townsville tonight.
Tuivasa-Sheck came through a test on his injured ankle in the team's final training to clear the way for his return after missing last Saturday's 34-14 win over Manly.

However, winger David Fusitu'a, who tops the NRL's try-scoring list with 15 tries in 13 games, is out of the side for the first time this season with an ankle injury he suffered at training.
For the fourth consecutive match, Kiwi Gerard Beale is brought in from the bench to start only this time he slots onto the right wing after being used in the centres in the last three games.
Apart from Fusitu'a, the other player to drop out of the original 21-man squad is halfback Mason Lino.
