St George Illawarra coach Paul McGregor has finalised his 17 for the Dragons' Round 19 clash against the North Queensland Cowboys at 1300Smiles Stadium, Townsville.

Jordan Pereira - who currently tops the Intrust Super Premiership try scorers list – will make his NRL debut on the wing.

Following Friday night's squad amendment, Kurt Mann shifts back to the bench and Jai Field drops out of the team.

Field is joined by Patrick Herbert as the unlucky players to miss out on selection.
