LOGAN Brothers Rugby League Club will feature on cans of XXXX beer in the lead-up to this year’s State of Origin series. The Milton-brewed beer would feature one letter out of the word Queenslander on cans as part of the promotion.

A club that starts with each letter would be featured, with Logan Brothers representing the letter ‘L’.

Club president Matt Mead said he was surprised to learn the club would be on the cans. “I got a call from a Queensland Rugby League executive to tell me about it and I was just blown away,” Mead said. “It’s the last thing you think of. We’re the only club in Brisbane to be on the cans. It’s good recognition for the hard work we’ve put in to help develop juniors who have gone on to play for the Maroons.”

Queensland captain Cameron Smith hails from Logan Brothers. Corey Parker, Lote Tuqiri and Brad Meyers have also played junior football for Logan Brothers before earning Maroons selection.

Other clubs on the cans include Quilpie Magpies, University Saints — JCU, Eastern Suburbs Magpies, Emu Park Emus, Noosa Pirates, South Mackay Sharks, Atherton Roosters, Normanton Stingers, Dalby Diehards, Eidsvold Eagles and Roma Cities Gladiators.
