Fetū Samoa Confirm Team Change Ahead of Kiwi Ferns Semi-Final

Fetū Samoa have confirmed a late change to their lineup ahead of Saturday’s Rugby League World Cup semi-final against the New Zealand Kiwi Ferns. Anastasia Leatupue comes into the side and is set to make her Fetū Samoa debut, replacing Freedom Crichton-Ropati, who is unavailable for semi-final selection due to injury. Leatupue’s inclusion gives her an opportunity to represent Samoa on one of the biggest stages in international rugby league, as Fetū Samoa prepare for a place in the World Cup final. The team heads into the semi-final following an impressive 24-6 victory over England, securing their place in the tournament’s final four for the first time. Now, they face the Kiwi Ferns in Newcastle with a historic World Cup final appearance within reach.

The updated Fetū Samoa team list for the semi-final is below.

Fetū Samoa will face the New Zealand Kiwi Ferns on Saturday, November 7, at McDonald Jones Stadium in Newcastle.
