Cowboys record derby win over Brisbane AAP 8/05/2021 Fraser Barton © Scott Radford-Chisholm/AAP PHOTOS Jason Taumalolo scored a key try as the Cowboys edged the Broncos in the NRL.
It wasn t the 80 minute performance North Queensland coach Todd Payten had envisaged, but a close win in a classic Queensland NRL derby has left him optimistic for his side moving forward.
A Valentine Holmes field goal in the dying stages was the difference as the Cowboys yet again in 2021 overturned a second-half deficit to beat Brisbane 19-18.
Led by a heroic captain s knock from Jason Taumalolo, the Cowboys came back from a 12-8 at halftime to snatch victory in the final 10 minutes of the contest.
The Cowboys have maintained bragging rights over big brother Brisbane with a courageous 19-18 win in Townsville off the back of a Valentine Holmes field goal.
It was the fourth time since 2015 that these two sides have been separated by only one point. With the Cowboys now winning three of the last six meetings, it proves this local derby is continuing its healthy rivalry.
That s now four wins from the past five game for the Cowboys but coach Todd Payten is not getting carried away, or making any bold predictions around September. Our best footy is well ahead of us, Payten said
