The JFC Team List highlights an exciting event for rugby league fans as the Fiji Kaiviti Silktails face off against the NZ Warriors in their round 18 Jersey Flegg Cup clash at North Harbour Stadium.
This match, taking place tomorrow at 12:00 PM, marks a historic occasion for the Silktails, as it is their first game in New Zealand.
Adding to the significance, the United States under-18 national side, the Young Hawks, will also be present, marking their inaugural official tour to New Zealand.
This tour was initiated after the NZ Warriors' visit to Las Vegas for their NRL season opener against the Raiders in March.
During their previous encounter in round five held in Lautoka in April, the Silktails put up a strong challenge, tying the game 18-18 after 65 minutes before the Warriors pulled away with two late tries to secure a 28-18 win.
Currently, the Warriors are looking to build momentum after a narrow 26-22 victory over the Sea Eagles last week.
They aim to secure another win to stay competitive for a spot in the top eight of the league.
