The Warriors' round 19 clash against the Penrith Panthers has plenty of significance to it as the NRL season heads into its final stretch.
The match is being dedicated to club stalwart Manu Vatuvei who is off to join English side the Salford Red Devils - but the Warriors will be out seeking revenge against the Panthers.
Last time the two sides met, the Warriors surrendered a 22 point half-time lead as the Panthers claimed a 36-28 comeback win back in round 10 in the Blue Mountains.
It was a low point for the New Zealand side, but nine weeks later, both teams are sitting four points outside the top eight, and a win here will help either side push for a finals berth.
Warriors' halfback Shaun Johnson wants to claim the all-important win, for the fans, and also Manu Vatuvei.
"It is a really big week," said Johnson. "We have spoken about it and understand that this is a very important game for both teams.
"We want to really enjoy that challenge, get excited to play back here on a Friday night because for us it doesn't happen too often.
"I want to rectify it, for sure. "'Mooks' (coach Stephen Kearney) might give us a little friendly reminder in the video (session).
"It was obviously a very disappointing day a few weeks back and it still sits in my belly, hopefully it sits in a few of the boys.
"We just want to go out and play footy and put on a good show for the people who watch and recognise Manu Vatuvei."
The Warriors are known to struggle at the backend of the season, last season they lost six of their last eight matches.
But coach Stephen Kearney doesn't believe that it will be the case this time around as be feels his squad has taken steps forward.
"The last six weeks of footy I feel that we've taken some good steps forward and sometimes we've been half a step back," Kearney said.
"We've sort of found what works for us and what our game looks like - when you see the Warriors play there is a look about us now.
"So it's really important that we get straight back into that groove against a really tough opponent."
