Blake Ayshford will mark his 29th birthday with his 150th NRL career appearance while prop James Gavet has been named in the starting line-up for the Warriors' Round 7 clash with the Raiders at GIO Stadium in Canberra on Saturday.
Ayshford and Gavet are set for their fourth consecutive outings since coming into the side for the first time in the club's Round 4 clash against St George Illawarra on March 26.
Ayshford was called up in dramatic circumstances, brought in at the last minute when Kieran Foran was ruled out in the warm-up for the match against the Dragons. The ex-Wests Tigers and Cronulla centre has since featured in the back-to-back wins over Gold Coast and Parramatta to take his career tally to 149 games.
"Blake has done exceptionally well to reach 150 appearances," said Warriors head coach Stephen Kearney.
"When you look at the rest of our outside backs he's not the same sort of athlete. Ken (Maumalo) and David (Fusitu'a) are big men, Sol (Kata) is really powerful and Roger (Tuivasa-Sheck) has so much speed. 'Aysh' is a lot different but he's reliable and does a tremendous job for us.
"It's great to see him getting to this mark."
