The Australian PM's XIII has undergone four late changes ahead of Saturday's clash in Port Moresby.

All of William Kennedy at fullback, Jojo Fifita on the wing, Kurt Mann and Nathan Brown on the bench have had to be replaced.

Jamal Fogarty, Kurtis Morrin, Thomas Hazelton and Alex Seyfarth are the new faces, with Hazelton the only one of the quartet to start.

He will line up at prop, with Josh Curran shifting to lock, while Morrin, Seyfarth and Fogarty line up as part of the seven-man bench.

Jaxon Purdue will become fullback with Kennedy out, while Tom Chester and, surprisingly, David Fifita line up in the centres. Nick Meaney joins Braidon Burns on the wing with Jojo Fifita out.

It could well point to the fact that Fifita is set to represent Tonga after rumours of the sort emerged recently that he, and Robert Toia, would both play for the men in red.

Fogarty being on the bench means Lachlan Galvin remains at halfback alongside Ezra Mam at five-eighth, while Toby Couchman lines up at prop alongside Hazelton, with Billy Walters the dummy half.

The all-Dragons second-row of Hamish Stewart and Ryan Couchman remains as per the original side named, to be coached by Ben Te'o.
