I'd tag the constituent parts and then reorder them as desired:
:%s/\(\S\+\)\s\+\(\S\+\)\s\+\(\S\+\)/\1 \3 \2/
Each of the \(\S\+\) captures one group of one-or-more ("\+")
non-whitespace characters ("\S") saving each captured item as \1,
\2, and \3. You can then reorder them in the replacement by
back-referencing those groups...in your original case, the
replacement would be "\3 \1 \2", and in the 2nd case, your
replacement is "\1 \3 \2"
