Brisbane Broncos win NRLW premiership after surviving Sydney Roosters fightback
The Brisbane Broncos have won the NRLW premiership after defeating the Sydney Roosters 22-18 in a hard-fought and contentious grand final at Accor Stadium. The match was marked by physical play, with several sickening collisions and a shoving match at the final whistle. The Broncos led for most of the game, but the Roosters staged a spirited comeback to make it a close finish. The crucial, match-winning try for the Broncos was awarded by the video referee, despite some doubt over whether Mele Hufanga had been held up by the Roosters defense. Hufanga was named the Karyn Murphy Medallist as the player of the match. The win gives the Broncos their fourth NRLW premiership, cementing their status as one of the dominant teams in the competition.
