Hanan Laban (one to be omitted) Coach: Rick Stone Fien in halves, Crockett back for Warriors against Knights Tue May 27, 2008 Source: www.warriors.co.nz Hooker Nathan Fien will start at standoff and Michael Crockett is back on the wing for the Vodafone Warriors' 12th round NRL clash against Newcastle at EnergyAustralia Stadium on Saturday night. With Micheal Witt still troubled by a hip flexor problem, coach Ivan Cleary has moved Fien (28) out of his regular dummy half role to run in the No 6 jersey in his 171st NRL appearance. That means Jerome Ropati (24) reverts to the centres after filling the standoff's spot in the last two matches against Penrith and the Sydney Roosters. The 25-year-old Crockett missed last Sunday's outing but returns after scoring three tries for the Auckland Vulcans in last Friday night's New South Wales Cup encounter with Manly. "We still see Jerome as an option at No 6 but he has missed a lot of football through injury recently and is working back to full match fitness," said Cleary. "Nathan has a background in the halves and he'll be able to help us in that role this weekend. At the same time, Ian Henderson has been in really good form and deserves the chance to start at hooker." The backline changes see Simon Mannering back in his preferred spot in the second row after being used in the centres against the Roosters. He'll have 20-year-old Sonny Fai as his starting partner this week with Epalahame Lauaki swapping roles to come off the bench. Regular winger Patrick Ah Van is set to turn out for the Vodafone Junior Warriors in their NYC under-20 clash against the Knights on Saturday night while Manu Vatuvei (leg), Wade McKinnon (knee), Malo Solomona (leg) and Witt were not considered due to injury. Veteran prop Ruben Wiki will make his return from injury with the Auckland Vulcans in their New South Wales Cup match against the Western Suburbs Magpies on Mt Smart Stadium's No 2 ground on Saturday. Also joining him will be back rower Wairangi Koopu, centre Ryan Shortland and prop Herman Retzlaff. "With Steve (Price) back and Russell (Packer) on the way up, we have a lot of choices at prop at the moment," said Cleary. "Ruben has had a couple of niggles. We want him in peak form and he'll be back in the NRL side soon if he does that." Ben Matulino (19), who has been impressive for the Vodafone Junior Warriors, has been named as 18th man for the trip to Newcastle.
