Neil Cadigan – Tweed Seagulls Correspondent
The Campbell Construction Co. Tweed Seagulls will have to wait until late this week before being able to confirm its line-up for Saturday’s all-important clash with Souths Logan Magpies due to judiciary charges and injuries.
The Seagulls had five-eighth Will Brimson and second-rower Joshua Patston subject to crusher tackle charges in last Saturday’s 40-18 win against Sunshine Coast and will decide today on whether to challenge any of the charges.
There are also some minor injury doubts over a couple more players so coach Ben Woolf has little choice but to wait at least until Thursday evening’s session to get a better idea of what team he will take to Davies Park for the 2.10pm Saturday clash that will be telecast on Kayo Freebies. This is a round 12 clash rescheduled after the matches set down for the first weekend of July were postponed because of COVID-19 restrictions.
He has plenty of options if he loses either of the pair, with Lindon McGrady able to revert back to five-eighth and Talor Walters and Brayden McGrady having played plenty of football at fullback.
Already the Seagulls will be without their Titans NRL squad members other than prop Darius Farmer who has been released from the NRL bubble while the Magpies will be missing their Brisbane Broncos players.
The club is delighted for halfback Toby Sexton to be given his NRL debut against the Dragons at Cbus Super Stadium this Sunday after his fine form for Tweed in 10 Intrust Super Cup games this season (nine try assists), following the impressive debut of fullback Jayden Campbell (six tries in six games for Tweed in 2021) against Melbourne Storm in round 13.
“It’s great to see both these players get their NRL debut and be rewarded for their good performances for Tweed this season,” said Woolf. “It’s obviously exciting for us to see them progress and to think their time with us in the ISC has benefitted them.”
