#MemoriesandMilestones First ever Cowboys home win against the Wests Magpies. The crowd were amazing that night as they were all year in 1995. History was made that night and we were very proud to have played a part in creating it. @nthqldcowboys
An injury has forced a change in the halves for tomorrow's clash with Penrith

Look out here come the knights. Great for and against now
I have no idea how Paul Green is keeping that coaching job up in North Queensland. Has shown he can’t coach for two seasons now in terms of both offense and defense. Also makes as minimal changes as possible to the team because he said he doesn’t want players to feel threatened.
The cowboys have just turned into a retirement home. You’ve got Gavin Cooper struggling to breathe out there and producing very poor, low energy performances on offense and defense and then to top it off you’ve got Bolton coming off the bench getting absolutely steamrolled.
Another thing that needs changing is the halves. Clifford has got potential but should never coexist with Morgan in the halves. Both have really poor kick execution and struggle to create anything at the line partly due to the coaching.
High energy backs and forwards as well as a game managing halfback should be cowboys main priorities for the recruitment season.
