Rd 2 team to play Mackay Cutters

Seagulls’ ISC coach Aaron Zimmerle has picked a preliminary squad of 19 for the second-round clash with Mackay Cutters in Mackay (6pm Saturday).

He has stuck with the players who played in the opening round against the Jets, with co-captain Damian Sironen replacing Titans-contracted prop Ben Nakabuwai (grade 1 knee injury).

Centre Tevita Folau who missed the clash due to suspension has been named on an extended bench with prop Shane Gillham.

With improved depth in his squad in 2017, Zimmerle and the players know there is pressure to perform but he has shown loyalty with his initial squad and has confidence they can hit back from the first-round loss.

The team will be finalised Friday before the team departs for Mackay on Saturday morning.
