North Queensland Cowboys In $110,000 Legal Dispute With Sponsor Brisclean

National Rugby League and premiership-winning side North Queensland Cowboys have launched a legal bid to put one of its "major sponsors into liquidation" after it defaulted on a six-figure deal, according to Vanda Carson of the Brisbane COURIER-MAIL. Murarrie-based company Brisclean had its company name "emblazoned on a sleeve of the rugby league team jerseys after signing on as a major sponsor of the Cowboys" for the '15 and '16 seasons. But after it "allegedly repeatedly failed to meet weekly payments" of A$5,500 ($3,858), the team terminated the deal. On Dec. 10, the Cowboys "sent a statutory demand" for payment of A$157,789 ($110,677) to Brisclean. The formal demand for payment "came just days after the District Court in Townsville ordered Brisclean to pay the bill" (COURIER-MAIL, 1/26).
