Kurt Capewell, Te Maire Martin and Rocco Berry are back for the One New Zealand Warriors’ critical round 25 clash against Gold Coast at Cbus Super Stadium in Robina on Saturday (5.30pm kick-off local time; 7.30pm NZT).

Capewell slots back into the second row and utility Martin is named on the interchange for a match the Warriors must win to hold onto fourth spot ahead of the finals.

The big inclusion is first-choice centre Berry for his 50th milestone appearance for the club in what will be just his seventh game of the season.

The 24-year-old last played in the club’s 34-14 win over Wests Tigers in round 19 when a shoulder injury forced him off just 32 minutes into the game,

With the Zae Wallace Shield at stake, Berry is reunited on the right edge with winger Dallin Watene-Zelezniak while fellow centre Adam Pompey reverts to the left edge alongside Roger Tuivasa-Sheck.

Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad, who has filled in at centre in the last three rounds, is moved back to his preferred spot at fullback.

With prop Jackson Ford serving a three-match suspension, Demitric Vaimauga has been listed to make his first start of the season after being used off the bench in each of his 21 outings so far this season.

Leka Halasima is named on the interchange with Martin and fellow young forwards Eddie Ieremia-Toeava and Tanner Stowers-Smith.
