Friday 29 May 2026  |  Cannon Park, Cairns

Andrew McCullough and Matt Gillett are coming to Cairns + Sam Williams (Canberra Raiders Player and Northern Pride Head Coach) for a live Q&A that goes beyond the game — Origin memories, dressing room stories, the moments that made careers, and plenty of laughs along the way.
