The clash between the Sharks and Cowboys in Townsville this Saturday night promises to be a showdown of epic proportions, with a multitude of top-tier players ready to battle it out on the field.
Cronulla's new recruit, Liam Ison, is set to make his debut as fullback as the Sharks aim to continue their winning streak against North Queensland, following their impressive 42-6 triumph in Round 7.
Individual performances will be crucial in this matchup, with the best player on the field set to be awarded the prestigious Paul Green Medal, named after the legendary figure who left his mark on both clubs.
Paul Green, who sadly passed away, had a successful career with both the Sharks and the Cowboys, and led North Queensland to their first NRL premiership in 2015.
It's a clash that is sure to bring back memories of the past, with Brailey and Robson, former teammates in Cronulla's under-16 Harold Matthews Cup team, now facing off against each other.
Brailey, a product of the Aquinas Colts, has secured the starting hooker position, while Robson has adapted his game to become a hard-running interchange forward.
Don't miss out on what promises to be a thrilling encounter between two fierce competitors in the world of Rugby League.
