Warriors coach Stephen Kearney says he’s confident his team will bounce back after their 34-6 loss to Wests Tigers in Sydney on Sunday.

On Saturday in Christchurch the Warriors will play the Manly Sea Eagles, who are winless after two rounds. The game which is a home game for the visitors.

Kearney says their high error count is what let them down against the Tigers.

"We looked at it [video] on Monday, we just got beaten in the little areas of the game which are really important in our game," said Kearney.

"The Tigers just did a better a job than us there and it was a real arm-wrestle up until about 35 minutes in that contest.

"We're disappointed, looked at it and we have moved on. We are focusing on what is important for us on Saturday."

Kearney has named an unchanged line-up from last week’s loss for Manly, with the coach yet to announce who will replace prop Sam Lisone who has been suspended for two NRL games for a crusher tackle on Tigers' Thomas Mikaele.

"They did pretty good job the week before last, again I don’t think chopping and changing is going to help things."

The Warriors sit in eighth place on the NRL ladder with one win and one loss in two NRL matches.
