The Toyota Forklift Raiders have named their team for the Raiders round three match against the New Zealand Warriors at Apollo Projects Stadium in Christchurch on Friday night.

Captain Elliott Whitehead returns to the starting team in the second row, with Zac Hosking moving to the interchange bench.

The shift of Hosking to the bench also sees Ata Mariota drop out of the 17 and onto the extended bench.

Sebastian Kris has been ruled out for this week’s fixture due to NRL concussion protocols, which sees Nick Cotric return to the side on the wing and Albert Hopoate shifting back into the centres.
