We'll see some familiar faces in the Cowboys side this weekend!

We'll see plenty of Northern Pride players and former Cairns boys in the Cowboys 20-19 side. 

Coach Paul Green has named a star studded line up for their trial match against the Gold Coast this Saturday. 

One of our junior kangaroos and former Under 20's pride players also signing a four year deal. 

Peter Hola will start on the interchange bench with a long list of other locals. 

They include Enari Tuala, Gideon Gela- Mosby, Ethan Lowe and Murray Taulagi. 

But they might have to do a little bit to get us Far Northerners back on their bandwagon after news broke late last year they won't play any games here this year. 

A road trip to Townsville might be on the cards for a few of us once the season kicks off.
