Source: www.cowboys.com.auKane Linnett has won the race for a starting centre position in the Cowboys backline and will make his NRL debut for North Queensland against Gold Coast in the 2012 season opener at Dairy Farmers Stadium on Saturday night.
However, Linnett's main rival for the left centre job, Antonio Winterstein, has not missed out and will be on the wing in his first game since suffering pectoral and shoulder damage in round 14 of last season.
Linnett joined the Cowboys on a two-year contract at the end of 2011 after playing 23 NRL matches for the Roosters, including the 2010 grand final, while injuries restricted Winterstein to just nine matches in his first season with the Cowboys.
Co-captain Johnathan Thurston and Ray Thompson will continue as the Cowboys' halves pairing, although they have swapped the number six and seven jerseys they played in last season.
Gavin Cooper, Glenn Hall and Dallas Johnson have won the keenly contested starting back-row slots, with coach Neil Henry naming another four forwards, including hooker James Segeyaro, on the interchange bench.
Johnson, prop James Tamou and winger Ashley Graham have been cleared to play after missing the pre-season trial which the Cowboys lost 36-28 against the Titans in Mackay.
Saturday night's match kicks off at 8.30pm (Qld time) and will be live on Fox Sports and 4TOFM ? follow our Twitter feed @nthqldcowboys for live score updates.

Wed August 3, 2011
Source: www.cowboys.com.auThe North Queensland Toyota Cowboys have signed Sydney Roosters outside back Kane Linnett to a two-year contract starting from the 2012 NRL season.
The 22-year-old, who made his NRL debut for the Roosters in round 14 of the 2010 season, has played 22 NRL matches and was part of the Sydney club's grand final team last season.
Toyota Cowboys General Manager - Football Peter Parr announced Linnett's signing today, saying his arrival would add significantly to North Queensland's backline depth.
"With Willie Tonga leaving our club at the end of the year, we identified the centre position as one area we needed to look at," Parr said.
"We are very pleased that Kane has accepted our offer and will be a Cowboy from next year.
"He is a talented player in attack, is strong defensively and has already had the experience of playing in a finals campaign."
