The uncapped Folau Fakatava takes the third halfback spot, in the squad to play Ireland.
But coach Ian Foster says the door is not closed to either Perenara or Weber.
Kiwi shot putter Tom Walsh believes he's on track to peak at next month's World Championships in Oregon.
The double Olympic bronze medalist is at his US base after some encouraging results in Poland.
Walsh won both meets, beating one of his arch rivals American Joe Kovacs twice and throwing a season's best 22.31 metres.
And Tigers centre Brent Naden will spend at least a month on the NRL sidelines for his dangerous throw on Manly's Jake Trbojevic .
Naden was sent off after dumping the lock on his head.
