North Queensland Cowboys

The North Queensland Cowboys were widely tipped to be a premiership contender in 2023 despite losing Tom Gilbert and Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow to the Dolphins. The Cowboys lost five of their last six matches in 2023, slipping from as high as 7th on the ladder to finish outside of finals contention.

This season Jake Clifford has returned from England to bolster the halves, Viliami Vailea has been signed for the outside backs, and Luciano Leilua has been released by the club to pave way for up-and-coming second-rowers Heilum Luki and Kulikefu Finefeuiaki. But, will that be enough for coach Todd Payten and his Cowboys to play finals football again?

See what Australia’s best NRL bookmakers are saying about their prospects going forward.

Cowboys players to watch in NRL 2024

Scott Drinkwater

Scott Drinkwater

Born: 15/5/1997
Games: 94
Tries: 33
Position: Fullback

Scott Drinkwater had an incredible 2023 season for the Cowboys, which earned him a call-up to the New South Wales Blues State of Origin squad. Despite being sent off in his second game of the season against the Broncos last year, he bounced back to be the leader of the Cowboys in attack. In 2024 Drinkwater will need to become a more consistent threat in the NRL as fellow fullbacks Kalyn Ponga and Reece Walsh have done to make the Cowboys a premiership threat again.

Reuben Cotter

Reuben Cotter

Born: 28/12/1998
Games: 59
Tries: 6
Position: Prop

Reuben Cotter has exploded in the NRL over the last two years, earning the job of co-captain like Cowboys and Queensland Maroons greats Johnathon Thurston and Matt Scott have done before him. This season will be a test for Cotter’s ability to shoulder the responsibility of leadership at the club while also playing with the incredible toughness he has.

Jason Taumalolo

Jason Taumalolo

Born: 31/5/1993
Games: 252
Tries: 38
Position: Lock

Jason Taumalolo has been an incredible player for the Cowboys since his debut in 2010. This season he appears to have the simplified front-row job at the Cowboys which will allow him to focus on being the damaging forward everyone knows he is. Taumalolo’s biggest test will be performing at a high level and being consistent as he moves into the back end of his career. The knowledge he can pass on to his fellow forwards will be immeasurable for their development.
