North Queensland Toyota Cowboys NRLW Head Coach Ben Jeffries has named a full-strength side for Saturday’s historic inaugural home game at Queensland Country Bank Stadium against the Brisbane Broncos.
Autumn-Rain Stephens-Daly will officially make her Cowboys debut after false starts in her bid to return from a knee injury in the opening two rounds.
A Kiwi Ferns international, Stephens-Daly has been named on the wing to face the Broncos.
Former Fijiana Drua rugby star Vitalina Naikore holds her spot on the opposite wing after a stunning starting debut last weekend.
Naikore scored tries and had several other dangerous touches in an impressive display in just her second game of competitive rugby league.
