There is no denying that the Warwick Cowboys are family affair.

And at the weekend they really were a band of brothers.

Four sets of brothers were all playing together across the three grade’s.

In the Under 19s there were Carge and Chase (who was playing up a grade from Collegians) Martin-Brown (older brother Cameron was in reserve grade) while in the reserve grade their were Will and Daniel Howard and in the A grade Patrick Conn returned from injury to join his brother Daniel Conn. Kiwi-born brothers Alifeleti and Joseph Vite were also playing together in the A grade together.

Photographer and proud mother Helen Howard pointed out the occurrence at the weekend.

“I would think having four sets of brothers playing across the three grades would be pretty unique and special for the brothers,” she said.
