Jeremiah Nanai's two tries led the Cowboys to a 26-12 upset over the Panthers, inspired by Jason Taumalolo's 300th NRL milestone game.

North Queensland have credited Jason Taumalolo's 300th NRL milestone game as their inspiration for an upset 26-12 victory over ladder-leading Penrith.

Two tries to back-rower Jeremiah Nanai, the latter coming from a flying kick retrieval effort over star Panthers Brian To'o and Dylan Edwards, proved the difference for the Cowboys who ended their three-game losing run.
