In round 7 of the 1995 ARL season, he made his first grade debut against North Queensland at the Willows Sports Complex. Guberina played a total of three years at Manly with each season seeing the club winning the Minor Premiership and claiming the 1996 premiership defeating St. George in the grand final.[2][3][4]
