The next year he made his debut in State of Origin, representing Queensland, and scored a very memorable try. He also won the Broncos' rookie of the year award and many pundits were lauding his skill, size and strength and that he was destined for higher honours, but a combination of inconsistent form and injuries saw him in and out of first grade until he was snapped up by the North Queensland Cowboys for the 2005 season.
In 2005 Webb started with all guns blazing for the Cowboys. His strong form forcing him once again into the Queensland State of Origin team. Injury sadly impeded his season and on top of that a suspension for punching was handed down, forcing him to finish his year on the sidelines.
In 2007 Webb again started the season strongly, but unfortunately suffered a broken jaw early in the season.
