Final team list: Round 21

Twenty-year-old forward Peter Hola will make his NRL debut in tonight’s XXXX Derby clash between the North Queensland Toyota Cowboys and Brisbane Broncos.

A 2017 Junior Kiwis representative, Hola has starred in his first season of senior football for the Northern Pride in the Queensland Cup in 2019.

The Marist Saints Auckland junior was signed by the Cowboys at the 2016 New Zealand Schoolboys Rugby League carnival.

Hola replaces Jordan McLean in the 17 after the Cowboys vice-captain picked up a calf injury during captain’s run.

Retiring veteran Matt Scott starts in the front row in what will be his 31st and final XXXX Derby.

The rest of the side is as announced by head coach Paul Green on Tuesday.

Tonight’s game kicks off at 7.50pm
