Brisbane Broncos vs Nth Queensland Cowboys Preview
It’s only fitting that the Broncos and Cowboys should meet following a pair of commendable performances last week against the 2020 Grand Finalists.
Brisbane managed to put a late scare into the Panthers after trailing 18-0, while the Cowboys also pushed the Storm to the brink in a narrow 20-16 loss up in Townsville.
Both teams will be eager to improve on their performance, but as the market suggests, there isn’t much separating these two sides.
The Broncos are a tough team to trust as they struggle to string together two consistent halves, while the Cowboys have played to an awful 1-7 record away from home this year.
North Queensland has won its last two meetings against Brisbane, although it’s tough to read too much into a narrow 19-18 win up in Townsville when they met earlier in Round 9.
Defensively, we’re talking about two of the worst sides in the competition here, so it wouldn’t be surprising if we get a typical see-saw affair between these two rivals.
