All player numbers check off in this video, with the exception of John Peek in no.11 who was replaced early in the match by Phil Charlton.:

There is a player for Norths wearing number 49 at 1:18, but I think it is Mal McLachlan & he reverts back to 1 again later. I looked back at BL to see who wore no. 49 for that year (Norths seemed to give each player their own number for the season in 1975) which was Gary Wonnacott. He last appeared in that number in round 5 as a reserve for U23s, so I don't think he got onto the field in first grade.

Numbers:
CB: All are confirmed in the video except Anderson & Noonan.
ES: All are confirmed in the video except Pickett, McKay & Cupic. 9. is Reilly (see 1:06 called by Rex), so I am assuming 12. is Bandiera.
Video:

Daily Mirror says that Beetson was replaced by Dennis Hughes.

Last post by Max Turner - 29 June, 2026, 01:47:28 PMYeah that's correct: match report / NRL.com page about these fixtures.
I think there's some confusion with these fixtures because the PNG or Fiji PM's squads are sometimes identical to the national teams, other years it's a more of a development squad. Even the men's fixture in previous years has been described as Australian PM's vs PNG Kumuls, but now the media seem to be clearer that it's not a "Kumuls" team.
Maybe it's splitting hairs, but the short answer in my view is that the men's game are designated on RLP as Australian/Fijian/or PNG PM's teams, and I think the women's games should follow this.
There's two other games that also need to be updated to PM's games:
- PNG vs Australia (6 October 2018)
- Australia vs PNG (25 September 2022)
(Both have the Australian Women's PM's team selected, but have the PNG Orchids national team instead of the PNG Women's PM's team as opposition)
