The week has finally arrived where we get to play again! I've been waiting for this since the Grand Final, it's been a long and hard Off-Season but finally, we'll get to see the mighty Red and green back out there on the park this weekend as we go up against the Cowboys in our first trial game of 2022.
It's a trial so hard to know how the Cowboys will line up but I'm sure it'll be a tough hit out. I think North Queensland are a real chance at improving this year and they'll want to shot that right from the get-go in the trials so our boys are going to have to be on, it'll be a tough contest I have no doubt.
Not really sure how we're going to line up either but JD has stated that no players who played in the Grand Final last year will be playing in this one so I'm assuming it'll be all our young guns and fringe guys in this one. We should still be able to field a pretty strong team and it'll be a great chance for all those guys to show what they can do and stake their claim. Hoping we get an early look at Ilias and it'd be good to see the likes of Taas, Sele and Knight play. We'll see.
Conditions will most likely play their part. It's going to be very hot this time of year up there so it'll be good fitness for the boys and we'll be able to see where they're at in that regard. I know it's a Pre-Season game and it's not the Charity Shield so the result doesn't matter but a win would still be nice. however the main priority is just to show us what you've got and do your best.
Really looking forward to this, our first game for the year. Footy is back baby!!!
