Dragons dozen named for NRL Representative Round

St George Illawarra front-rower Leeson Ah Mau has been named in New Zealand's 19-man squad to face England on Saturday, June 23 at Denver's Mile High Stadium.

Ah Mau is one of seven potential Kiwis debutants named in new coach Michael Maguire's squad.

The Samoan representative will become a dual international if he runs out against the likes of Dragons teammates Gareth Widdop and James Graham, who were named for England last weekend.

Joe Lovodua and ISP Dragon Pio Sokobalavu were named in the Bati's team earlier last week ahead of their clash against Papua New Guinea at Campbelltown Sports Stadium's Pacific Test double-header.

Dragons duo Tim Lafai and Luciano Leilua have both been named in the Samoan squad to face Tonga also at Campbelltown on Saturday night.

Dragons winger Nene Macdonald – while named in Papua New Guinea's squad on Sunday morning – has unfortunately had to withdraw after suffering a shoulder injury in the Red V's win over the Sea Eagles on Saturday.

Macdonald's recovery timeframe is yet to be determined, and will be communicated as soon as possible.

Late on Saturday night, New South Wales retained Dragons quartet Tariq Sims, Tyson Frizell, Jack de Belin and Tyson Frizell in  for Origin II to be played at ANZ Stadium.

Queensland announced on Monday morning that Dragons halfback Ben Hunt had retained his spot in the Maroons' Origin squad.
