Might be plenty of points up in the tropics. Both sides have fire power up front and out wide. You would think this would be played on a fast track and be a pretty open game. Cowboys have a pretty impsoing record at home and this would be a tough time of year to head up there.

Cowboys 36
Roosters 26

They need to start off well especially with a win at home against strong opposition

The build up in the Townsville local paper would be a pleasure to read. Any conspiracy articles floating around yet?

20+ penalties and a dog of a match is my prediction while the referees try to do their best to interpret whatever the f**k making a genuine effort to immediately release a the tackled player means.

Regardless of that though I'd expect the cowboys to get up playing any game at home in March.

Hard to pick, but I think the Roosters will initially struggle adjusting to life after Mini and SBW. Also with it being a Cowboys home game, I think they'll get the 2 points.

Pretty much this.

Expect a shitload, and I mean a shitload of dropped ball also.The humidity at this time of year, combined with the rustiness of the teams usually means for a terrible match. We always seem to start the season very poorly also.

For this reason I reckon its a flip of the coin for who will win.
