Western Clydesdales teammates ready for City vs Country clash

Clubmates will become rivals this weekend when the Western Clydesdales City and Country squads go head-to-head. Here’s our look at the stars players to watch.

Laythan Potter, Harrison Cole and Clayton Hensler will all be in action this weekend.

Some of the South West Queensland’s most promising junior league stars have the perfect opportunity to stake their NRL claims this Sunday.

The Brisbane Broncos and Gold Coast Titans trial will be the main event on Sunday but the annual City v Country Western Clydesdales clash earlier in the day will provide plenty of highlights.

Featuring a host of established and fringe Western Clydesdales as well as Toowoomba Junior Rugby League stars the now annual matches are always exciting.

Ahead of the game at Toowoomba Sports Ground, which kicks off at 10.25am, we are shining a light on the rising stars you need to watch.

Lucas Clark (City)

The young fullback has a great set of hands and has knack for injecting himself into backline plays at just the right time.

Cooper Dolley (City)

Having just returned from a Pathways Camp with the Melbourne Storm, Dolley is primed for a big year.

A versatile forward who defends well, runs the ball hard and is not afraid to get his hands dirty.

Lachie Hinselwood (City)

The determined lock is a natural leader who works hard.

Aside from his physical play his other greatest asset is his ability to organise his fellow forwards making sure his team maintains its shape and structure.

Chevy Ryan (City)

Made his mark for Valleys last season in TJRL as powerful centre with a big motor.

Not afraid to do the hard work he can split a defence with his running game.

Concordia student Leroy Malone has signed with the Brisbane Broncos rugby league.

Leroy Malone (City)

Malone earned plenty of fans last season lining up for Valleys Roosters.

The dynamic back, who recently signed a deal with Brisbane Broncos, is athletic and exciting to watch.

Has speed to burn and can break a defence open in the blink of an eye.

Harrison Cole (Country)

Flying with the Gatton Hawks in TJRL since under-6s, Cole is a typical country league star.

He works hard on both sides of the ball and gives 100 per cent of himself in every game.

Jack Curtin (Country)

The gun fullback loves his footy is confident under the high ball and a real attacking threat.

Laythan Potter (Country)

The type of forward every coach wants in their pack.

Potter is aggressive, runs hard and will be relied on to lay down the attacking platform for his side.

Kalan Potter (Country)

A talented young playmaker who can line up at hooker or halfback.

He has the vision and skill to expertly steer his team round the field.

Xavier Fing (Country)

A versatile young star who can play across first and second, lock and centre if needed.

Loves to pile the pressure on opposition defences with wide runs.
