The Wynnum Manly Seagulls will see some experienced rugby league faces head their way next year, headlined by the signing of former NQ Cowboy Travis Burns.
Burns – a half with 127 games of NRL experience after playing stints with the Cowboys, Penrith and Manly – will join the Seagulls from the English Super League competition where he has been since 2013.
Favourite son Mitchell Frei will also return to the Seagulls after spending the past season with the Sydney Roosters where he made his NRL debut.
