More than two months after watching his first game of NRL, the wait was over for Jim from Chicago to see his first North Queensland Toyota Cowboys game.

Jim woke up at 3am (local time) to watch our clash with the Titans live and tweet his thoughts about the match.

I have absolutely no idea what is going on, but I have been watching Australian Rugby for the last hour because it's a live sport @NRL

If the ball gets knocked down by the Titans, the Cowboys get a fresh 6 tries? #NRLCowboysTitans

6-0 already! Great start, keep it up! #NRLCowboysTitans

Why do they get the ball back after scoring? That’s something that’s different in American football #NRLCowboysTitans

Gonna be honest, I didn’t know a “scrum” was a real thing haha #NRLCowboysTitans

10 minutes?! Do we play down a man for 10 mins then or is that player just off for 10?

Did I motivate them with my tweets? Probably not. Will I say otherwise? Yes. 26-6 Cowboys! #NRLCowboysTitans

Just responded to a work email, can’t wait for the reply of why I was awake at 445am. Oops #NRLCowboysTitans

36-6 final! That was awesome, 1-0 since I became a fan! @nthqldcowboys @NRL #NRLCowboysTitans

Big shoutout to @nthqldcowboys for making me a fan and setting it up so I could watch the match. Lot to learn but lots of matches to go!

And with the birds chirping and the sun coming up, I think it’s time to finally call it a night (morning?). Let’s do it again next week! @nthqldcowboys @NRL #NRLCowboysTitans
