One of Warwick’s greatest sporting rivalries will be reignited this weekend in the annual Barrett Shield clash.
The Warwick Cowboys and Wattles Warriors will take to Father Ranger Oval on Saturday evening to battle it out for the title, bringing rugby league back to the Rose City for the first time in nearly a year.
After meeting in a pre-season trial carnival at the Wattles’ home Platz Oval last weekend, both clubs are promising to bring their A-game at the weekend’s game.
Cowboys president Dayne Barrett said he was confident the team could defend the title in front of a home crowd.
