The Broncos have scored four unanswered tries to surge ahead of the Cowboys and lead 30-18 after 70 minutes.

Down 18-6 late in the first half, Broncos speedster Deine Mariner crossed for his 17th try of the season right before half time to trim the margin to six.

Brisbane put the foot on the gas in the second forty, scoring three more to draw clear against a shellshocked Cowboys outfit.

The Cowboys were the better side in the first half, with Brisbane not helping themselves with eight errors.

Broncos star Reece Walsh was in serious discomfort for what looked to be a hand injury, but he is bravely playing on.

Meanwhile, Cowboys forward Jeremiah Nanai is out for the game after failing a HIA.

Earlier, Broncos prop and former Cowboy Corey Jensen broke a seven-year try drought to open the scoring in the Queensland Derby.

MATCH PREVIEW

Meanwhile, the Broncos need nothing less than a victory against the Cowboys to keep their finals dream alive, an unthinkably situation after finishing as runners up in 2023.

Kick-off at Queensland Country Bank Stadium is scheduled for 5.30pm AEST.

The North Queensland Cowboys will host the Brisbane Broncos in Townsville for their Round 23 NRL clash this Saturday.

Coming off three consecutive wins, including last month’s unexpected victory over the Sharks, the Cowboys are in red-hot form ahead of the Queensland derby.

The Dragons can solidify their spot in the top eight when they host the Bulldogs are remarkably in contention for a top-four berth.

St George Illawarra pulled off the upset of the season in Melbourne last week and coach Shane Flanagan has pulled a late switch to his pack.

Flanagan has a point to prove against the Dogs after the club hired rookie Cameron Ciraldo without even offering the premiership coach an interview.

Canterbury coach Cameron Ciraldo also has the luxury of naming the same 17 that beat the Raiders in Round 22, with Josh Curran cleared of a shoulder injury suffered in that clash.

The Bulldogs are chasing their 12th win of the season – they won just seven games last year – which will all but certainly clinch their finals spot.
