Confirmed Lineup: Pack changes

NZ Warriors head coach Andrew Webster has reshuffled his starting forward pack for the club's historic NRL season-launching clash against the Canberra Raiders at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas (1.00pm kick-off NZT).

It sees three changes with captain Mitchell Barnett starting at loose forward, Jackson Ford coming off the interchange to start in the front row and Erin Clark going to the interchange.

Eddie Ieremia-Toeava is confirmed as 18th man with Te Maire Martin 19th man.

Omitted from the 22 were hooker Sam Healey, prop Bunty Afoa and winger Edward Kosi.

Co-captain James Fisher-Harris is the only player named to make his NZ Warriors debut in the historic clash.

Bringing four straight premiership wins with Penrith to his new home, the Kiwi captain becomes Warrior #290 as the club begins its 31st season with its first premiership match played outside New Zealand or Australia.
