With the Maori All Stars having been outgunned by the electric Indigenous team last year, new coach David Kidwell has vowed to fight fire with fire this time. The promise of dynamic attacking play mixed with the intense cultural passion from both sides means Saturday's clash at Cbus Super Stadium is shaping as a high-octane thriller. All eyes will be on new Rabbitohs signing Latrell Mitchell, who will wear the No.1 jumper for the Indigenous All Stars and showcase his skills and fitness at fullback.

Nathan Peats, 10. Jamayne Taunoa-Brown, 11. Joel Thompson, 12. Wade Graham, 13. David Fifita. Interchange: 14. Connor Watson, 15. Christopher Smith, 16. Zac Saddler, 17. Josh Curran, 18. Alex Johnston, 19. Tyrone Peachey, 20. Tyrell Fuimaono Joel Thompson has been named captain, taking over from last year's skipper Cody Walker, who is unavailable after an off-season shoulder reconstruction. Injuries forced other key players to withdraw from coach Laurie Daley's original squad, including Andrew Fifita (knee surgery) and Adam Elliott (ankle injury). Fellow forward Ryan James copped a devastating blow with his second season-ending ACL rupture in as many years. Rookie props Jamayne Taunoa-Brown, who is trialling with the Warriors, and Zac Saddler, a Manly lower-grader, have earned call-ups. Dragons recruit Tyrell Fuimaono, who can play centre or back row, and Canterbury lock Chris Smith were also late additions. Daley has said that his outside backs could be shuffled into the forwards at stages due to a shortage of big men. Maori All Stars squad: 1. Kalyn Ponga, 2. Dallin Watene-Zelezniak, 3. Esan Marsters-Siavale, 4. Dylan Walker, 5. Bryson Goodwin, 6. Kodi Nikorima, 7. Jahrome Hughes, 8. Jesse Bromwich, 9. Brandon Smith, 10. Adam Blair, 11. Kenneath Bromwich, 12. Briton Nikora, 13. Corey Harawira-Naera. Interchange: 14. Issac Luke, 15. Brad Takairangi, 16. Zane Tetevano, 17. Jordan Riki, 18. Kevin Proctor, 19. Malakai Watene-Zelezniak, 20. Pasami Saulo Adam Blair and Dallin Watene-Zelezniak will lead the Maori side. Rabbitohs veteran Bryson Goodwin has been drafted in to replace Raiders winger Bailey Simonsson. Props James Tamou and Nelson Asofa-Solomona have also withdrawn, being replaced by young Broncos forward Jordan Riki and Knights front-rower Pasami Saulo. There was a question mark over the fitness of Esan Marsters, with the centre coming off an ankle cleanout, but he erased any doubts by featuring in North Queensland's triumphant NRL Nines campaign last weekend.
