New Zealand got out of jail in Round 20 as they strengthened their place in the top-four with a last-gasp win over Newcastle.
However, the Warriors ran out of luck as they were handed a surprise defeat by the embattled Gold Coast before losing in the last minute to the Dolphins. This losing run was then compounded by a defeat to Canterbury.
Yet Andrew Webster's side finally snapped their losing streak with a narrow victory over St George Illawarra. This week, they will have the chance to claim some revenge on the Titans.

Warriors latest team news:
New Zealand bagged a vital two competition points last week with a hard-fought win over the Dragons. And they are now set to welcome several players back to the fold.
Rocco Berry is set to return from a shoulder injury and he has forced a number of changes in the backline. Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad returns to fullback and Taine Tuaupiki drops out to accommodate the centre.
Te Maire Martin and Kurt Capewell missed last week's win due to head knocks, but will return. Martin pushes Sam Healey off the bench.
Capewell slots straight back into the backrow, where he is joined by Marata Niukore. As a result, Leka Halasima has dropped to the bench.
Meanwhile, Jackson Ford has been handed a three-game ban for a crusher tackle, with his place up front taken by Demitric Vaimauga.
Jacob Laban is only scheduled to return from a broken leg in the finals, while Luke Metcalf and Mitch Barnett have been ruled out for the season due to ACL injuries.
