The NRL prelim finals are here. We take a look at some of the head-to-head and individual player stats for the Broncos Vs Warriors game.
Two of the NRL’s great improvers for 2023 meet at Suncorp Stadium for a chance at a long overdue grand final appearance. It’s been 12 years since the Warriors have played in the NRL grand final, and a further five further back for Brisbane when they last appeared – and won.
The Warriors carry a loaded bandwagon of Warriors fans, New Zealand well-wishers and neutral fans whose choices are limited. And they are every chance of upsetting the Broncos on Saturday night and trying to win their first ever NRL Premiership. They’ll have loads of support in Brisbane and over the NRL universe.
Brisbane have been sensational for most of the 2023 season, with the former Warriors fullback Reece Walsh at the heart of most things good, and a few things bad. Of the teams left, they are the side that will worry the Panthers the most with their slightly ad hoc style and Souths outcast Adam Reynolds steering the side.
It has to be the most exciting of the two finals games on offer this weekend.
