Australia vs New Zealand match preview

As is usually the case between the pair the Aussies will start as favourites. This match will see a whopping nine players make their international debuts.

The Kangaroos will debut Nick Cotric, Josh-Addo Carr, Jack Wighton, Payne Haas and Paul Vaughan. New Zealand have four debutants including Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad, Zane Tetevano, Braden Hamlin-Uele and Corey Harawire-Naera.

It'll also be exciting for fans to watch several NRL teammates go head to head. Raiders teammates Wighton and Nicoll-Klokstad plus Roosters allies Latrell Mitchell and Joseph Manu all square up in the centres.

Boyd Cordner can make history for NSW this weekend. Cordner can be the first NSW captain to complete a unique threepeat. A win over the Kiwis would see him captain a side to an NRL premiership, State of Origin series win and tier one nation victory.

The Kiwis' Benji Marshall will become New Zealand's most capped test skipper. Marshall returned to the national side for the first time in 7 years earlier in 2019 against Tonga.

Canberra Raiders forward Josh Papalli is set to play after overcoming a rib cartilage injury. You can see the final confirmed team lists just before kick-off on the NRL website.
