The Northern Territory Rugby Union will host the Townsville & District Brolgas on a two match tour of Darwin in late September.

The Brolgas will warm up with a match against the Junior Mosquitoes on Friday 22nd September before taking on the pride of the Territory on Sunday Afternoon.

The Townsville & District Rugby Union is celebrating their 50th Anniversary and will keen to extract revenge on the Mozzies following a 55-22 loss at home last year.

The Brolgas swept to a third straight North Queensland Championship in April with wins against Mackay & Central Highlands and Far North Queensland and are arguably the strongest Union in Queensland outside of the State’s South Eastern Megalopolis.

Peter McGrath has been reappointed Head Coach and would have been pleased with the intensity of the recent Country of Origin Match and the opportunity to watch regional players from Katherine and Alice Springs in the Mercure Country Cup which will ensure there is plenty of depth to both the Senior and Junior Mosquitoes
