Agnatius Paasi will be forced to watch from the sidelines this week as the Warriors take on the Penrith Panthers this Friday.
The Warriors forward received a one-match ban after making dangerous contact with Dragons five-eighth, Corey Norman during the 42nd minute of their sensational win against the Dragons on Saturday.
The ban comes as the Warriors contend with depleted forward stocks because of a multitude of injuries.
Peta Hiku may also miss out on Friday's match after sustaining a rib injury which saw him leave the field during the round three clash with the Dragons.
The struggling franchise has taken on Roosters forward, Poasa Fa'amausili, through a loan deal in an attempt to bolster their injury stricken forward pack.
Fa'amausili is expected to join the squad this week, a move which will soften the blow dealt by the absence of Paasi.
Fellow forward, Lachlan Burr, could also return this week after a head knock during training ruled him out of last weeks match.
