Adam Brideson has named five players to make their club debuts for the BMD Wynnum Manly Seagulls this Saturday in Round 1 of the Intrust Super Cup.
Jesse Arthars, Jack Campagnolo, TC Robati, Issac Luke and Luke Bateman will run out in the red and green for the first time against the Papua New Guinea Hunters at Bycroft Oval on the Gold Coast.
Arthars did not trial with the Seagulls as he was on duty with the Broncos, but will be looking to impress both his new team mates as well as Brisbane head coach Kevin Walters.
With 286 first grade games under his belt, as well as 37 tests for New Zealand, decorated NRL star Luke will make his Intrust Super Cup debut off the bench.
Campagnolo will start at five-eighth and former Canberra Raiders’ star Bateman will come off the interchange.
19-year-old Robati will start in the second row after strong performances during the trials.
