The Brisbane Broncos are doubling down on their winning formula, naming an unchanged starting lineup for their highly anticipated derby clash against the North Queensland Cowboys this Friday night.
Fresh off an impressive victory last round, coach Kevin Walters has kept faith in his squad, opting for consistency as they prepare for one of the most intense rivalries in the NRL. With star players in top form and combinations clicking, the Broncos will be looking to maintain their momentum and assert their dominance over their Queensland rivals.
Reece Walsh remains the X-factor at fullback, with his electrifying speed and attacking flair set to be a major weapon. Captain Adam Reynolds will continue to steer the team with his precise kicking game and leadership, while Payne Haas and Patrick Carrigan provide the muscle up front. The backline, led by Kotoni Staggs and Herbie Farnworth, has been firing, and fans will be eager to see them carve up the Cowboys’ defense once again.
On the other side, North Queensland will be out for revenge after a tough loss last week. With Tom Dearden and Chad Townsend leading the attack and Jason Taumalolo bringing his trademark power, the Cowboys won’t go down without a fight.
Derbies between these two sides have a history of producing thrilling contests, and this one promises to be no different. With both teams boasting explosive talent and plenty to prove, Suncorp Stadium is set for a Friday night blockbuster.
Can the Broncos keep their winning streak alive, or will the Cowboys crash the party? One thing’s for sure—this Queensland showdown will be unmissable.
