Cowboys to meet Storm in 2017 NRL Grand Final

Cowboys to meet Storm in 2017 NRL Grand Final

Action between the Cowboys and the Roosters

Eighth‑placed North Queensland Cowboys upset the second‑placed Roosters 29‑16 at the Sydney Football Stadium to set up a NRL grand final against minor premiers Melbourne.

Once again, brilliance from Michael Morgan and a super finish by Kyle Feldt have rescued the Cowboys at finals, sending them into another grand final.

 

Feldt, the man who scored the game‑tying try in North Queensland's 2015 grand final win, produced another brilliant and pivotal finish last night, while Morgan, who threw the miraculous final pass two years ago, enjoyed a wire‑to‑wire masterclass.

The injury‑riddled Cowboys hardly seemed to miss Johnathan Thurston, with Morgan's kicking, passing, running and tackling all at the highest possible level from start to finish.
