THE TEAM NEWS
BRISBANE BRONCOS
- Brisbane Broncos suffered a second loss of the season so far as they went down to Penrith Panthers in a repeat of last year’s Grand Final.
- The Broncos were already missing some key men before Reece Walsh suffered a facial fracture in the opening exchanges so he will also sit out here but skipper Adam Reynolds is back in the side.
Starting 13: 1. Tristan Sailor 2. Jesse Arthars 3. Kotoni Staggs 4. Selwyn Cobbo 5. Deine Mariner 6. Ezra Mam 7. Adam Reynolds 8. Corey Jensen 9. Billy Walters 10. Fletcher Baker 11. Jaiyden Hunt 12.

NORTH QUEENSLAND COWBOYS
- North Queensland Cowboys maintained their perfect start to the campaign as they secured a third consecutive victory, overcoming St. George Illawarra Dragons.
- For the second time in their opening three matches, the Cowboys were able to surpass the 40-point mark and in a further boost for this contest, Zac Laybutt returns to the side.
Starting 13: 1. Scott Drinkwater 2. Kyle Feldt 3. Valentine Holmes 4. Zac Laybutt 5. Murray Taulagi 6. Tom Dearden 7. Chad Townsend 8. Jordan McLean 9. Reece Robson 10. Jason Taumalolo 11. Kulikefu Finefeuiaki 12. Jeremiah Nanai 13. Reuben Cotter Bench: 14. Jake Granville 15. Griffin Neame 16. Sam McIntyre 17. Jack Gosiewski Reserves: 18. Tomas Chester 19. Thomas Mikaele 20. Semi Valemei 21. Marly Bitungane 22. Jake Clifford
THE PREDICTION
Brisbane Broncos do not look like the side that competed for the Grand Final last year with injuries perhaps hampering them at this early stage of the campaign. They have lost two of their opening three matches and are still missing some key men for this Queensland derby with North Queensland Cowboys. On the other hand, the away side are three from three and their attacking qualities should be too much for the Broncos to handle.
TIP: NORTH QUEENSLAND COWBOYS TO WIN
