Mason Lino makes a return to the NRL tomorrow teaming up with Shaun Johnson in the halves for the Warriors’ 19th-round clash against Melbourne at Mount Smart Stadium tomorrow (4.00pm kick-off).
Lino replaces the seasoned Blake Green, coming for his sixth appearance this season and his first since the 24-14 win over Parramatta on May 18.
Green is out with a rib complaint, missing from the line-up for the first time this season. He’s expected to be back next week.
The other player to drop out of the original 21 named is utility Peta Hiku, who has a hand injury. He is also expected to be available again next week.
