THE NORTH QUEENSLAND COWBOYS HISTORY OF THE NORTHS NATIONAL RUGBY LEAGUE TREAM
The North Queensland Cowboys are an Australian professional rugby league team based in Townsville, the largest city in North Queensland. Since their foundation in 1995, the team has appeared in three grand finals (2005, 2015, 2017), But how did they become what they are today, besides playing football. Well with the success of the broncos in 1988, things began to intensify as to if the NSWRL would admit a new team based in North Queensland. In 1993, the NSWRL announced that North Queensland would be entering the competition in 1995, along with 3 other new sides. They are many difficulties that face the team and the club. One major difficulty in their early years was attracting followers from the Queensland-based Winfield Cup side, the Brisbane Broncos. This was exacerbated by an initial lack of onfield success and stability. In their first two seasons, the Cowboys had eight different captains and finished last in their inaugural seasons. 2005: Grand finalists with the help of new recruits Carl Webb and Johnathan Thurston, the Cowboys had gone one better in 2005 when they reached their first grand final in club history. The side finished in 5th spot and with back-to-back finals appearances. They would ultimately lose the grand finale to the Wests Tigers. In his first year with the club, Johnathan Thurston won the Dally M Medal and made his State of Origin debut for Queensland. Since 1995, the cowboys have played in their home grounds at the Willows Sports Complex, located in the Townsville suburb, Kirwan. Prior to 1995, the venue hosted trotting paceway nights, and was the main pacing venue for the Townsville district, but due to the admittance of the Cowboys, the venue was turned into a rugby league stadium. The venue was renamed Stockland Stadium in 1995, due to sponsorship rights, and attracted a crowd of 23,156 to the cowboys first ever premiership game. Their new home and stadium is currently under construction and due for a 2020 season launch. 2011-2013: Return to the finals after missing the finals for the last 3 seasons the cowboys underwent a major improvement of personnel for the 2011 season. Club legend Ty Williams retired and they had also parted
ways with club favourites Luke O’Donnell, Carl Webb and Steve Southern. 2012 saw the Cowboys return to the finals after finishing 5th. They faced the Broncos in the first week of the finals, winning 33-16, with halfback Michael Morgan scoring a hat trick. They lost the following week to Manly. 2014-Present: A new era and the club’s first premiership The cowboys started their 2014 season by winning the inaugural NRL Auckland Nines tournament which was held at Eden Park in Auckland. The cowboys went on to face the Brisbane Broncos in the final, defeating them 16-7, claiming the trophy and prize money cheque of $370,000. In 2015 the cowboys experienced their best season. They had a club record of an 11 game winning streak and finished with a club record of 17 wins. On September 26 2015, the cowboys Qualified for their second grand finale, defeating the Melbourne Storm, 32-12. In the Grand Final, they defeated the Brisbane Broncos, 17-16. Thurston won the Clive Churchill Medal, by kicking the winning field goal in golden point, winning the cowboys their first ever premiership. In 2017, despite losing Co-captains Johnathan Thurston and Matthew Scott to season ending injuries, the club qualified for their third grand final. Although they were just the second side to reaching the grand finals form 8th place, they lost to the Melbourne Storm, who had finished the season as minor premiers.

COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT RUGBY TOTS It is no secret that North Queensland loves its Rugby. It is also no secret that children love to be active and have fun, so it makes sense to combine these two loves. You’re in luck, because Rugbytots Townsville does exactly that. Rugbytots in Townsville offers dynamic weekly play sessions for boys and girls aged 2-7 to introduce children to the game of rugby, and to engage them in a structured activity with a focus on fun.
Using programs specifically designed for children of each age group, Rugbytots says that children can expect to: “Run across the jungle, wade through the quicksand, or sprint through Rugbytots Valley avoiding all the smoking boulders. Get ready to protect your egg, launch a missile or attack the pirates and seize the ship, all this of course, while trying to avoid the evil side lines!” They can expect to learn how to catch, pass, kick, run with the ball, and play as part of a team.
“Make it more fun.” Rugbytots’ motto is simple: “Make it more fun.” According to their website, Parents and guardians of children aged 2 to 3 ½ years old are required to participate fully in classes, which is a great opportunity to spend quality time with your child while they learn new skills, meet new friends and have an exciting introduction to the game of rugby. Parents and guardians of 3 ½ to 5 year old children can take a step back and cheer on and encourage the players from the sidelines, as the children develop social and physical skills in a positive sporting environment. By ages 5 to 7, Rugbytots will have your child playing a fun game of tag rugby each session while enhancing their self-esteem and confidence. Rugbytots run classes each week at four separate locations in Townsville, with a range of timeslots available. They even do children’s birthday parties! If you have any further questions or would like to sign your child up for a class, you can contact Rugbytots Townsville on: (+61) 407 731 647, or you can visit their website at: www.rugbytots.com.au to find out class times or read more about what people have had to say about their programs.

JUNIOR RUGBY IN TOWNSVILLE A GUIDE It is no secret that North Queensland loves it Rugby. It also is no secret that children love being active and having fun, so it makes sense that combining these two loves is a great way for your child to be a part of our local sporting passions, while staying active, and making lifelong friends. Rugby Australia®, as the National governing body for Rugby Union, has divided Rugby for players under the age of 18 into two categories: TryRugby Kids Pathway™, and Youths Rugby. Each individual age is designed to introduce players to new aspects of training and gameplay. Of course, the rules of Rugby League do differ from Union, but training and teaching aims and goals for children and Juniors are similar in many regards. According to the Rugby Australia® website, the aim of the ‘TryRugby Kids Pathway’ (for U6 to U12 players) is to provide a series of age-specific modified rugby games. These modified rugby games progressively develop the individual skills, fitness and team work of all the players in accordance with their physical maturity and understanding of the game. To the left, is a table which demonstrates the different aims and goals from U6 to U12. Whereas, ‘Youth’ Rugby (for U13 to U18) focuses on progressive development of all core skills under situations of increased on-field pressure (e.g. kicking, defending, contact under pressure). Locally, most people refer to this age group as ‘Juniors’. Unlike the TryRugby Kids Pathway, players within the Youth age group are trained in how to train, and to compete. For players who would rather avoid the pressure of being tackled or the intensity of defending against a full-on assault by a burly Rugby forward, or perhaps would rather focus on their agility and running game, there is the option of ‘Touch’ football. Using many of the same rules as the League or Union codes of Rugby, Touch is a largely non-contact sport, with only minimal force permitted. For further rules of Touch Football. Due to the popularity of Rugby in Townsville, there is a broad range of Rugby options for those who are under 18 years of age. Assessing your options may be a little confusing at first, so to help you to make a choice we have put together a guide to your options here in Townsville. On the following pages, we canvass the options, and offer a brief outline of what each club has to offer.

THE PERCIVAL AWARDS SHOWCASING LOCAL TALENT
The biennial Percival Portrait Painting Prize is North Queensland’s own portrait competition and is held at Perc Tucker Regional Gallery and the Percival Photographic Portrait Prize returns for the third time since its inaugural display at Pinnacles Gallery in 2014. Having begun in 2007, The Percivals is an open competition for artists. While showcasing the outstanding and innovative work currently being produced by Australian artists, the competition has also given many emerging artists an opportunity to engage with portraiture and share their expressions of themselves and those close to them. Across the years various participating artists have presented styles and approaches to the contemporary portrait - from abstracted images and cool conceptualism to smooth realism and the energetic aura of thick, impasto oils executed with a broad brush and palette knife. Thanks to the generosity of Glencore and other sponsors over the years, the Prize has steadily grown in stature and prize monies, from $3,000 in 2007 to the current major acquisitive prize of $40,000 and $10,000 for the photography award.

POSSUM MAGIC OUR COMMON BRUSHTAIL IN THE NORTH For the first time in history, there are more people living in cities and towns than outside them. Some animals are pushed out as our cities expand, but some animals take advantage of this new frontier. Possums, being one of our most versatile and adaptable marsupials, are adapting to living with humans in suburbans areas: Awake when we are asleep, using rooftops, fences and even power lines as road ways, they live their lives almost entirely above our heads. Even in the middle of a city, a possum likely will not be too far away.
“There is something special about spotting a possum in your own backyard.” Of the 23 possum species known in Australia, the Common Brushtail Possum is most likely to be thumping across your roof in Townsville. Brushtail possums are incredibly agile; they can climb vertical walls; use their hand like back feet for grasping and strong tail for curling round branches; and, have been known to jump up to 4 meters, such as from a tree to roof. They usually inhabit hollow limbs of trees: However, in the absence of suitable hollows in suburban areas, they will adapt to rooves of houses and sheds. Whilst known for their inquisitive and shy nature, they are quite vocal, which is why you will hear them communicating in the middle of the night with possum hisses, coughs, growls and screams. There are four main colour variations of the Common Brushtail: Silver-grey, brown, black and golden. Those
with the rare Golden Brushtail living in their garden, should consider themselves especially fortunate. Golden Brushtails get their unusual colouring from a genetic mutation, that results in low levels of melanin in their skin and fur. This is the same pigment that gives human skin and hair its colour, and make us tan. There’s something special about spotting a possum in your own backyard. Weaving its way along a branch, while staring down with its bulging eyes, a possum often is a reminder that the suburbs can still provide habitat for some of our wildlife. Possum-watching can be a fun and fascinating pastime for those who are fortunate enough to have our little furry friends living nearby. After a while, you should be able to recognise individual possums by their appearance, as each possum has slightly different facial features and colouring. You may even be fortunate to watch young possums growing up. You may learn a lot about their behaviour. For example, it may be noticed that some possums are amazing mothers; they will keep their young with them for a long time before insisting it’s time for them to leave their mum’s side, and sometimes defend their young to the death. It seems that maternal behaviours are passed between generations, From personal observations, the offspring of amazing mothers will tend to be an equally amazing mother to its own children. Unfortunately, the opposite is true, possums with a neglectful attitude toward their children will to raise possums with lacklustre mothering skills and attitudes.
A LITTLE POSSUM MAGIC Possum Magic has been one of Australia’s most popular and enduring children’s books, since its inception by author Mem Fox 34 years ago.
“It was very difficult to find a very Australian book.” You may be surprised to discover that Possum Magic was created as a result of author Mem Fox’s frustration for how difficult it was to find a very Australian book for her daughter to read as she was growing up. Although Mem Fox insists: “There’s not a moment of fury in it.” Illustrations from Possum Magic have been featured on three separate limited edition Australian $2 coins. Produced by the Royal Australian Mint, the coins have been circulation for a while. Go check your change to see whether you hold a special part of Australiana history. “Hush”, the main character of Possum Magic, is immortalised in a different design on each coin which stay true to the original illustrations and also feature colourful rings of magical dust . MAKE A CHANGE While possums usually are wary of and avoidant of people, and do little harm to humans, they can make nuisances of themselves by eating fruit and flowers from our gardens and, in the case of the Brushtail Possum, by taking up residence in the ceiling space of our homes. Availability of den sites is actually a critical factor limiting the number of possums in an area, because a possum without a den rarely survives. As suburban areas tend to have too few mature trees with enough hollow branches, possums have needed to adapt. This may be why Brushtail Possums take up residence in rooves and sheds, and almost anywhere they can squeeze themselves into. Australian residents should be encouraged make changes in their own backyards and neighbourhoods, to show that people and wildlife can be good neighbours. By taking a few simple steps, like possum proofing your roof and even providing a nest box, Brushtail Possums can become a welcome sight, and maybe even a little bit “possum magical”.

GARDENING TOWNSVILLE PLANTING GUIDE TO MARCH IN TROPICAL NORTH QUEENSLAND
Basil (Ocimum basilicum)
Grow in seed trays, and plant out in 4-6 weeks. Sow seed at a depth approximately three times the diameter of the seed. Best planted at soil temperatures between 18°C and 35°C. Space plants: 20 - 25 cm apart Harvest in 10-12 weeks. Pick before flowering. can grow beside : Tomato
Basil is a culinary herb, prominently featured in Italian cuisine, and also plays a major role in the Southeast Asian cuisines of Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos. The plant tastes somewhat like anise, with a strong, pungent sweet smell. There are many varieties including, Thai, purple ruffles and lemon. Can be grown inside in pots in winter. As the plant develops, pinch out the top to encourage bushy growth. Pick off flowers to encourage more growth. Basil is commonly used fresh in cooked recipes. It is generally added at the last moment, as cooking quickly destroys the flavour. Tear rather than chop. The fresh herb can be kept for a short time in plastic bags in the refrigerator, or for a longer period in the freezer, after being blanched quickly in boiling water.
Sweet corn, also maize (Zea mays, var. rugosa)
Sow in garden. Sow seed at a depth approximately three times the diameter of the seed. Best planted at soil temperatures between 16°C and 35°C Space plants: 20 - 30 cm apart Harvest in 11-14 weeks. can grow beside: All beans, cucumber, melons, peas, pumpkin, squash, amaranth Avoid growing close to Celery
Plant in 4 by 4 blocks to encourage germination? Pick when the silky threads on the cobs turn brown or black. Part the top of the leaves and test for ripeness by pressing a grain with your fingernail. If it is milky, it is ready. Early varieties ripen quickly and are sweeter when just picked. Avoid planting coloured maize (for drying) near sweet corn as they will cross-pollinate and spoil the cobs on both. Pick and cook within an hour. Remove the silks and outer leaves. Best flavour if microwave about 4 minutes per cob. Can be barbequed wrapped in foil, Cook large amounts in a stock pot until test soft. Sprinkle with black pepper and dip in butter.

(About 80 days) Asparagus pea is easy to cultivate. It needs average moisture, full sun and ordinary soil. It needs a long growing season to flower and fruit properly, so start it indoors in cooler areas. Only the pods are edible for Lotus tetragon bolus. The other asparagus pea is the tropical plant Psophocarpus tetragonolobus, also known as Goa bean. Support with twigs to keep the stems off the ground. Protect from slugs and snails. Pick pods when small as they become hard and dry if left too long. Cook quickly by steaming and serve with just a touch of butter and they are said to taste like their namesake .
