Two Sunday afternoon games, two Saturday night encounters and a rare Monday night match are on the menu in the Warriors' first five matches of the 2012 NRL season.
After starting their campaign with a grand final rematch against Manly at Eden Park on Sunday, March 4, the Brian McClennan-coached Warriors will travel across the Tasman to take on Stephen Kearney's Parramatta Eels at Parramatta Stadium on Monday, March 12.
The Warriors played Monday night away games against Melbourne and Manly in 2008 but their 2012 fixture against the Eels will be just their second taste of Monday night football since then. The only other instance has been this year's Anzac Day clash against Melbourne.
