Twin milestones are in store for captain Roger Tuivasa-Sheck and prop Sam Lisone while Solomone Kata returns from injury for the Warriors' encounter with the Penrith Panthers at Pepper Stadium on Saturday (5.00pm NZT). He has been named to return at left centre with Blake Ayshford and David Fusitu'a reunited on the right edge. This week Matulino, again named on the bench, plays his 199th career game - all for the Warriors - while Thompson makes his 49th appearance for the club (the 134th of his NRL career). The Warriors are 11th on the NRL table two points out of the top eight with a 4-5 win-loss record. The Warriors have lost their previous four away matches against the Panthers with their last win being a 30-16 victory in Penrith in 2012.
