In 1988 there was no rugby league played in Brisbane's Centenary Suburbs. The Primary Schools at Jindalee, Middle Park and Jamboree Heights played soccer or aussie rules and the nearest junior rugby league clubs were Inala, Souths at Acacia Ridge and Graceville at Tennyson. With the Brisbane Broncos entry into the NSW Rugby League Competition in that year interest was high in our code, and the publicity generated led to enquiries at the QRL regarding a club for the Centenary area. Mike Cullen who was the QRL Development Officer at the time advertised a meeting in the local papers to gauge local interest in the formation of a club.
The meeting was poorly attended and there appeared little interest, but one mother, Robyn King was pressured by her son to do more, and she again contacted Cullen who decided to set a date for a sign-on day for the 1989 season. The response was better than expected and training started at the Middle Park State School.
