After defeating Samoa 50-10 last week, just four players have retained their spot in the starting XV, as Langtry looks to give his entire squad game time ahead of next week's matches against New Zealand Schools Barbarians and New Zealand Schools. Brisbane Grammar flanker Fraser McReight will captain the side and the new-look forward pack that features an all Queensland front row.
