Leeds Rhinos and Super League will have plenty of representatives in this weekend's Pacific Championships
Former Leeds Rhinos teammates Rhys Martin and Zane Tetevano find themselves on opposing sides as Papua New Guinea faces Cook Islands this weekend. This Pacific clash promises to be a passionate affair, featuring players from various Super League clubs.
Martin, representing Papua New Guinea, and Tetevano, donning the Cook Islands jersey, will bring their experience and skills to the international stage. Tetevano, who hasn't played since May due to a training-related stroke, is set to make a remarkable comeback for his nation in the Pacific Championships after leaving Headingley earlier this year.
Joining Tetevano in the Cook Islands lineup are Huddersfield Giants' Esan Marsters and former Hull KR player Brad Takairangi. Meanwhile, PNG will feature Castleford Tigers' new signing, Nixon Putt, and fellow Tiger Liam Horne. However, the PNG team will be without the services of Edwin Ipape, who is serving a one-game suspension from the RFL. But Leigh Leopards star Lachlan Lam adds depth to the PNG squad.PNG Kumuls team: 1. Alex Johnston 2. Robert Derby 3. Zac Laybutt 4. Rodrick Tai 5.
Cook Islands Team: Esom Ioka, Malachi Morgan, Kayal Iro, Esan Marsters, Steven Marsters, Brad Takairangi, Tevin Arona, Davvy Moale, Rua Ngatikaura, Makahesi Makatoa, Zane Tetevano, Reuben Porter, Pride Petterson-Robatia, William Samuel, Rhys Dakin, Justin Makirere, Kadiyae Ioka
