Warren’s flying winger Fletcher Hunt and Jess Skinner - former Western Plains league coach, now Jillaroos and Indigenous All Stars coach - will feature in October 12’s Prime Minister's XIII matches to be played in Papua New Guinea on Sunday October 12.

Hunt is excited for his first representative match, which a strong achievement considering his Newcastle Knights side had a poor year.

Skinner will coach the Prime Minister’s women’s side, while former Brisbane Broncos and now Kangaroos’ coach Kevin Walters will guide the men’s side.

Hunt will be playing in a team captained by South Sydney Rabbitohs enforcer Keaon Koloamatangi and featuring some of the game’s stars of 2025 including the captain’s teammates Jye Gray and Tallis Duncan, Canberra Raiders trio Ethan Strange, Tom Starling and Corey Horsburgh, and Melbourne Storm’s Nick Meaney and Tyran Wishart.

“The squad has a really strong mix of experienced representative players and some of the best young talent that we saw showcased in the NRL this season," said Walters.

“I’m excited to get to work with the team this week and put on a great display in Port Moresby on Sunday.”

Skinner’s squad is a mix of debutante and experienced players.

“We have some players in this squad that have experienced this fixture previously and having them back in the team will be invaluable for some of the exciting young talent we’ve selected to get a taste of international rugby league," she said.

“The players that are involved in this game will have the opportunity of a lifetime coming together to play and experience a country that has a passion for rugby league like no other.

“For the young players, it’s a chance to put their hand up for Jillaroos' honours and I know that they are going to bring a lot of energy and excitement to this contest."

The Women’s Prime Minister’s XIII will be captained by Quincy Dodd and Sophie Holyman, and include Titans’ Jaime Chapman, Eels’ Abbi Church and Wests Tigers’ Caitlin Turnbull.

The matches will be held at Port Moresby’s Santos National Football Stadium.
