The Warriors have options galore at centre with Montoya, Wiliame, Marata Niukore, Viliami Vailea, Adam Pompey and Rocco Berry all in contention for the position.

However, coach Andrew Webster could also consider 20-year-old Vailea as a favorite to take the spot along with versatile centre-back rower, Wiliame.

The Warriors will face the Wests Tigers in pre-season while their round one match is against the Knights on March 3rd.
