Sea Eagles winger Akuila Uate will line up for his 12th Test match for Fiji this Saturday night after being added to the squad this afternoon.
Uate has represented Fiji from 2008-16 in between playing five Tests for Australia (2011-120.
The flying Fijian has been in superb form in his first season for the Sea Eagles after joining the club from Newcastle where he commenced his career in 2008.
Uate has formed a lethal right side partnership with centre Dylan Walker, who set up four tries for Akuila in the big win over South Sydney last Friday night.
Joining Uate in the Fijian side will be Manly team-mate Apisai Koroisau for the match against Tonga at 5.30pm at Campbelltown Sports Stadium.
Uate and Koroisau will line up against Manly team-mate and Tongan prop Addin Fonua-Blake. Winger Jorge Taufua was chosen to represent Tonga but has since withdrawn.
