Queensland’s biggest beer brand XXXX is excited to officially announce the inaugural “XXXX Derby” between two of the NRL’s greatest rivals, the Brisbane Broncos and North Queensland Toyota Cowboys, which takes place tonight at Suncorp Stadium.

Set to be a huge crowd and one of the blockbuster games of the season, XXXX as a foundation partner of the Cowboys and long-term partner of the Broncos said it is proud to show its support for this and future derby occasions.

The official XXXX Derby Trophy is up for grabs for the first time, created from original wood used in the building of the Castlemaine Perkins Brewery and will be presented to the winning captain after the clash. The winning team will house the trophy in their League’s Club between derby matches.

“We are really excited to continue our ongoing partnership with both clubs and celebrate the great rivalry between these two teams by launching the XXXX Derby,” XXXX Marketing Manager, Richard Knight said.

“XXXX is all about bringing people together, to share games like this. We can’t wait to show our support for what promises to be a cracking game,” said Knight.

Brisbane Broncos captain, Darius Boyd said: “We look forward to the games against the Cowboys every year. The atmosphere and fan support is always second to none and the XXXX Derby Trophy is a great way to enhance the occasion.”

North Queensland Toyota Cowboys co-captain, Johnathan Thurston said: “We’ve been looking forward to this game throughout the off-season; it’s definitely one of most fierce rivalries our competition has seen. It’d be great to be the first team to bring the XXXX Derby Trophy home to North Queensland.”

Fans will also have the opportunity to head to the Precinct Bar at Suncorp Stadium pre-game (from 6pm) to have their photo taken with the XXXX Derby Trophy as well as Broncos and Cowboys legends.
