Rookie half named in Dragons line-up

St George Illawarra Dragons coach Paul McGregor has named his mandatory 21-man squad ahead of the Dragons' Round 4 clash against the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs at Bankwest Stadium on Monday, June 8.

McGregor has named rookie halfback Adam Clune in the number seven jersey to make his NRL debut on Monday.

Clune's inclusion sees Corey Norman shift to fullback at the expense of Matt Dufty, while Josh Kerr has been named to start in the front row.

Bern Hunt moves to five-eighth, while Trent Merrin and Issac Luke are the new faces included in the Dragons line-up.

Prop Korbin Sims and interchange second-rower Tyrell Fuimaono have dropped out of the 17 that went down to the Warriors last weekend.
