The Warriors continued their good pre-season form to notch a 28-6 win over the North Queensland Cowboys in Cairns on Saturday night.
The Warriors will now take back-to-back successes into their final trial against Manly Sea Eagles at Mt Smart on Saturday after the recent win.
The performance followed last Saturday's 26-8 victory over the Sydney Roosters in Rotorua.
The Warriors fielded a more experienced side against the Cowboys than the previous week but were still without key players in captain Simon Mannering, Steve Price, Brent Tate, Manu Vatuvei, Wade McKinnon and Ian Henderson.
North Queensland fielded a strong side with new recruit Willie Mason getting a run although had to make-do without play-maker Johnathon Thurston.
The Warriors looked comfortable in the less than satisfactory playing conditions and opened their scoring in the 20th minute through hooker Aaron Heremaia.
The Cowboys had drawn it up six-all by halftime however but didn't have an answer to the visiting side in the second half.
The first try in the second spell came after 10 minutes when Lance Hohaia, who played the whole match at fullback, speared through on a short side play.
Fifteen minutes later North Queensland failed to cover a James Maloney kick to the right, allowing it to bounce and watching helplessly as Patrick Ah Van swooped to seize the opportunity and race 20 metres for a try under the bar. Heremaia's conversion took his side to an 18-6 lead.
With five minutes to go, the Warriors converted a worrying defensive situation into the try of the night when second rower Ben Matulino intercepted on his line and managed to get into the other half before Hohaia executed a clever kick and re-gathered to score.
One more try to Warriors youngster Bill Tupou put the nail in the coffin for the Cowboy's as the New Zealand side made amends for its 10-26 trial match against the same side in 2008.
New Zealand Warriors 28 (Hohaia 2, Heremaia, Ah Van, Tupou tries; Seymour con; Locke con; Heremaia con; Johnson con)
North Queensland Cowboys 6 (Geia try; Williams con)
HT: 6-6
