SAM Burgess has made several changes to his Warrington Wolves squad to face Wigan Warriors on Saturday.

Indeed, there are six potential senior debutants named in the 21, with several front-line stars taken out of the firing line ahead of the Challenge Cup Final against the same opposition next weekend.

Burgess was already going into the game without George Williams, who was handed a one-match ban for a late hit during Saturday's win at Catalans Dragons, while prop Joe Philbin is likely to miss the Wembley showdown with an adductor muscle injury.

They drop out as part of nine changes to the 21 as Matty Ashton, Ben Currie, Lachlan Fitzgibbon, James Harrison, Toby King, Josh Thewlis and Danny Walker are all kept in reserve.

Matt Dufty, Josh Drinkwater, Zane Musgrove, Matty Nicholson, Sam Powell, Rodrick Tai and Paul Vaughan remain involved.

The potential debutants included are prop Dan Okoro, who signed from Championship side Bradford Bulls earlier this year, and academy graduates Ben Hartill, Cai Taylor-Wray, Frank Sergent, Jake Thewlis and Nolan Tupaea.
