The North Queensland Cowboys have been a powerhouse of the National Rugby League (NRL) for many years, but former player Matty Johns has recently identified a worrying issue with the team’s current status.
The Cowboys have been a regular feature in the NRL finals series since the club’s inception in 1995, but have not made the grand final since 2017. This lack of success has been a cause of concern for many fans, and Matty Johns has now identified the issue as a worrying one.
Johns, who played for the Cowboys from 1995 to 2000, believes that the team’s lack of success is due to a lack of depth in the squad. He believes that the Cowboys need to focus on recruiting players who can add something to the team, rather than just relying on the same core group of players.
Johns also believes that the team needs to focus on developing young players and giving them opportunities to prove themselves. He believes that this is the only way for the Cowboys to become a genuine contender for the NRL title.
Johns’ comments have been echoed by many fans, who are concerned about the team’s lack of success in recent years. The Cowboys have made some changes to their roster in recent times, but it remains to be seen whether these changes will be enough to turn the team into a genuine contender.
It is clear that Matty Johns has identified a worrying issue with the Cowboys’ current status, and it is up to the team to make the necessary changes to become a genuine contender once again. Only time will tell if these changes will be enough to get the Cowboys back to their former glory.
