Will Brimson, older brother of Gold Coast Titans sensation AJ Brimson, has returned from suspension and has been included in the Campbell Construction Co. Tweed Seagulls 18-man squad for the clash with Wynnum Manly at Iona College, Brisbane on Sunday (3pm).
The utility player who specialises at five-eighth joins ever-dependable forward Kirk Murphy on the extended bench as the Seagulls go into the ‘Flock-buster’ with a clunky, yet valuable, first round victory against the Capras under their belt as they prepare to take on a Wynnum side that beat PNG Hunters 20-18.
Titans forwards Herman Ese-ese and Sam McIntyre, who played against the Capras, have not been initially named in Ben Woolf’s squad as they have been included in the 21-man Titans squad to take on the Cowboys on Sunday in Townsville. They could come into the side although the Titans are monitoring Ese’ese’s mouth injury that saw him lose a tooth in a nasty collision with Capras’ PNG Test forward Nixon Putt last Saturday.
His Titans squad mate Jai Whitbread has been named to start in the front row with JJ Collins after coming off the bench late in the first half and making a substantial impact last Saturday.
Joe Vuna has again been named, as he was last week before having to withdraw because of a minor knee injury. A call will be made on the former Warriors player later in the week.
“We’ve already got some tough selection decisions with Will now available and a lot of depth as shown by the performances of those who came into the side last weekend,” said coach Ben Woolf.
“It’s still a matter of working out the best combinations in the early rounds.”
