Wallaroos coach Jo Yapp is looking for greater impact from her side as she confirms a refreshed team to face New Zealand.
Rebels captain Ash Marsters has been ruled out after picking up an ankle injury against the USA in Melbourne.

She will be replaced by Waratahs enforcer Leilani Nathan, who is in for her maiden international start.
Nathan will look to add major power to their pack alongside second-rower Atasi Lafai.
Lafai was named Player of the Final in NSW's win over the Fijian Drua last month.
Cecilia Smith is the lone change to the backline, replacing Trilleen Pomare as the Force skipper goes to the bench.
The Reds skipper partners Georgina Friedrichs in the centres.
17-year-old Caitlyn Halse retains her starting spot at fullback, with Brumbies flanker Tabua Tuinakauvadra added to the bench.
"While the first two results have not been what we were after, the team has come together well and have shown some good learnings and progressions,” Yapp said.
“We’ve had a really good week of training in Auckland and I am excited to see how the team performs against the Black Ferns.
“Ash Marsters is unfortunately unavailable through injury.”
The Wallaroos will be searching for their first win over the Kiwis, which would secure their spot in WXV 1 in Canada.
