Pacific Championships Team-Lists Week 3 - Young In For Murray, Lindsay Smith Debut, Rimbu Benched, Keaon Reserves
Kangaroos: Canberra's Hudson Young moves into the starting side in place of the injured Cameron Murray (wrist) while Panthers premiership winner Lindsay Smith joins the bench for his Test debut. Ben Hunt is again the 18th man.
Tonga XIII: Coach Kristian Woolf has named the same 17 that pulled off a stunning upset over New Zealand to advance to the Cup final. Edge forward Keaon Koloamatangi remains with his partner as they await the birth of their child but could be a late inclusion closer to game day.
Kiwis: Roosters powerhouse Naufahu Whyte has been elevated to the starting side with Leo Thomoson moving to the interchange bench as the Kiwis fight to avoid relegation to the Bowl for 2025. Erin Clark is again the 18th man.
Kumuls: Rhyse Martin returns to captain the side after missing last week's game for personal reasons. Dan Russell goes back to 18th man and Morea Morea drops to the reserves. Liam Horne has been named to start at hooker but could swap with Judah Rimbu as he did last weekend.
