North Queensland Cowboys vs New Zealand Warriors Preview

The action heads back to Townsville later on Saturday afternoon, and both the Cowboys and Warriors will be eager to bounce back from Round 2 losses.

The Cowboys just snuck past the Raiders in Round 1 after going to sleep in the second forty of that clash, before suffering a rather handy defeat to fierce rivals the Broncos in Round 2.

I thought that the scoreline in that game (28-16) was probably a little flattering to the Cows as well, and it could have very easily been a lot worse.

The Warriors warmed into their Round 1 clash with the Knights before ultimately icing the result, while I thought that there were still things to like about their Round 2 clash with the Roosters despite losing.

Fitter third-up and without a lot expected of them this week (if the market is to be believed), I think that the ambush actually could be on here.

That being said, I am taking the safer option of them covering a 9.5-point line as outsiders.
