Indigenous All Stars vs Maori All Stars Frequently Asked Questions

Both teams have had a reshuffle in their line ups from last year’s teams and in my opinion it is the Maori that put together the best 17 this season. The forward back of the Maori, led by James Fisher-Harris has the advantage over the Indigenous and that will be the make or break in this game that is predicted to be more of a physical and defensive encounter.

The past 3 matches played in Australia have been low scoring and the previous match in 2022, that the Maori won, had just 26 points. With some key attacking stars out of the line up for both teams and some young halves combinations, the 42.5-point game total is a little high.

One thing is for sure is that the Indigenous will look to attack with speed on the outside so expect Alofiana Khan-Pereira to fly at some stage in the match as he looks to start his 2025 season as he left 2024, as the leading try scorer in the comp.

The Maori All Stars won 16-10 last time the event was held at CommBank Stadium in 2022.
The past 3 matches played in Australia have had a game total of Under 42.5
Alofiana Khan-Pereira lead the NRL with 24 tries in 2024.

Head to Head

The Indigenous All Stars lead the head to head series 3-2-1.

The Indigenous All Stars won the match in 2024, beating the Maori 22-14 at Queensland Country Stadium, in Townsville, with Josh Addo-Carr scoring a double and Braydon Trindall getting two try assists.

Indigenous All Stars Team News

The Indigenous side will be without regulars Latrell Mitchell, Josh Addo-Carr, Kotoni Stags and Nicho Hynes which does leave some holes, especially in attack, compared to last year’s 17.

Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow will play at fullback with coach Ronald Griffiths putting two speedsters on the outside with Tyrone Munro and Alofiana Khan-Pereira on the wings.

The biggest shock call is Sharks young gun Niwhai Puru starting at halfback, pairing up with Jayden Campbell. Puru hasn’t played an NRL match YET, however he helped guide the Newtown Jets to the 2024 NSW Cup premiership with his flawless goal kicking.

Maori All Stars Team News

Jahrome Hughes, Brandon Smith and Joseph Tapine are notable absentees from the Maori side in 2025, however, Adam Blair’s side have been boosted by some quality inclusions.

Kalyn Ponga will start at fullback for the Maori All Stars with Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad joining Kodi Nikorima in the halves. The Kiwi captain and new Warriors recruit James Fisher Harris will feature in the front row with Royce Hunt with one of the best hookers in the game Jeremy Marshall-King squeezed in between them.
