Everything you need to know about Pacific Championships Finals

The 2025 Pacific Championships has been played across three countries and four consecutive weekends and concludes with an epic day of finals action at CommBank Stadium.

After a stunning finale to the 2024 Pacific Championships, where the Kangaroos and Jillaroos claimed their respective Pacific Cup titles in front of a packed CommBank Stadium, the 2025 edition is set to reignite some of the game’s fiercest international rivalries.

Samoa are back in the men’s Cup draw after missing last year’s Pacific Championships to tour the UK and are set to face off with New Zealand in the Pacific Cup final.

In the women's final it's arch-rivals the Jillaroos and Kiwi Ferns going at it again after an epic showdown at Eden Park which saw the green and gold prevail 10-4.

Sydney’s golden west will come alive for the finals in rugby league heartland, with Samoa's passionate fan base set to bring a vibrant atmosphere to the men’s final.
