Here come the Cowboys out onto CBUS Stadium. Kickoff not far away.
Welcome to CBUS Stadium on the Gold Coast for the last game on Super Saturday and it’s a Queensland derby to finish off the day, with the Gold Coast Titans hosting the North Queensland Cowboys. The Titans are coming off a home win over the Eels, while the Cowboys were thrashed by Manly in Townsville last start.
The Titans have made some late changes to their 17, with Tyler Cornish and Nathaniel Peteru dropping out of the squad, which sees Tyrone Roberts move from hooker to fullback, Ryan Simpkins will start at hooker and Max King and Karl Lawton come onto the interchange bench.
North Queensland Cowboys are 1-17.
The Cowboys go in as favourites despite their loss last start, however they will not underestimate the spirit and tenacity of the Titans who are a very hard team to beat at home.
Stay tuned for all the action @LeagueUnlimited as this will be a cracker to finish off the day!
