Mitch Barnett’s return to the Warriors has lasted just a couple weeks.
The team’s co-captain broke a thumb in last weekend’s 32-14 loss to Wests Tigers in Auckland.
Barnett had only just returned from injury the week prior after suffering a season-ending knee injury last June.
A Warriors statement said Barnett had surgery this week with a return to play date yet to be determined.
The Australian forward played 52 minutes against the Tigers.
The Warriors are second on the table with a three win-one loss record.
They are away to the Sharks on Sunday.
