Jake Granville Jake Granville 15. “A real concern now for the Broncos,” Corey Parker said. “Dominant in this second 40 the home team, on track to do the double over big brother in 2022,” Speed said. “Intercept, Taulagi accepts the gift and we are all tied up in the Queensland derby,’ Brenton Speed said. “Jeremiah Nanai, what a try scorer he is, he scores tries for fun,” Parker said. “Dominant in this second 40 the home team, on track to do the double over big brother in 2022,” Speed said. “Jeremiah Nanai, what a try scorer he is, he scores tries for fun,” Parker said. “Wonderful defensive positioning from Taulagi, both teams starting to expand their game coming out of their own end,” Corey Parker said. “Intercept, Taulagi accepts the gift and we are all tied up in the Queensland derby,’ Brenton Speed said.

Cowboys surge to claim derby rights over Broncos (NRL.COM)

The Cowboys have made it two wins over the Broncos in a season for the first time since 2016 following a 40-26 victory in the Queensland derby in Townsville ...

Plenty to work on for us, but the good thing is there is nine more weeks for us to get it right and make sure that the next time we play them, and we will play them again, that we get it right. But some of the tries that they scored shouldn't have been scored, which is the part that really nags at me." "From a possession and field position point of view, for the first 60 minutes yeah [we dominated them], they didn't have a play inside our 20-metre zone up until 50 odd minutes. We didn't get it right tonight." - Three penalty goals in the first half enabled the Cowboys to take a narrow 10-8 lead. Broncos winger Corey Oates bagged a double in the second half to add to his try-scoring tally in 2022 but it wasn't enough for the visitors with the Cowboys in control for most the match with a 56% possession rate in their favour.

Cowboys down Broncos, record Qld sweep (PerthNow)

North Queensland have recorded their first ever 4-0 NRL season sweep over state opposition, scoring a comprehensive 40-26 win over Brisbane in Townsville.

The visitors were first to score when Peta Hiku erratically attempted an offload which Billy Walters pounced upon. The win also sealed their first ever 4-0 sweep over Queensland sides since Gold Coast joined the NRL in 2007. The centre also ran for a team-high 153 metres while Jason Taumalolo was powerful through the middle with 149 of his own.

Broncos late charge not enough against Cowboys (Broncos)

North Queensland Cowboys 40 (Murray Taulagi 2, Griffin Neame, Kyle Feldt, Reece Robson, Jeremiah Nanai Murray tries; Valentine Holmes 6 goals) Def Brisbane Broncos 26 (Corey Oates 2, Billy Walters, Selwyn Cobbo tries; Adam Reynolds 4 goals). Related /.

A Scott Drinkwater spiral bomb was moving all over the place and Martin spilled it to give the Cowboys another chance. Just one minute later, Pat Carrigan found Cobbo with a nice inside ball to streak 50 metres up field. A short ball to Griffin Neame saw the Cowboys extend their lead to 16-8 after 45 minutes. But Brisbane have shown they won’t die in 2022 and they pegged one back through Corey Oates, who became the outright fourth highest try scorer for the club with 111 career Broncos tries. When the Cowboys kicked the ball out on the full it looked like a remarkable come back was on the cards, but back to back errors from the Broncos killed any chance. It didn’t take long for the Cowboys to convert with Feldt scoring in the corner from a slick backline play and the score blew out to 22-8.
