Australia played five matches in the tournament: New Zealand Māori, Niue, New Zealand, Samoa and New Zealand Māori (Semi-Final). This list includes the players named in the programme and affirmed as try scorers in the New Zealand Rugby League Almanack plus those named as making their debut in 2003.[1][3][4]
