Matt Pritchard takes a look at the Brisbane Broncos’ 2020 draw.
Analysis
The Brisbane Broncos once again will play thirteen games on their home turf, Suncorp Stadium thanks to the Magic Round.
Once again quite a lot of prime time Friday night games and a couple of Thursday night games make up the Broncos draw.
In the first six rounds they only face two 2019 top eight clubs which should mean the Brisbane based club get off to a flying start.
From Round 14 to 18, the Broncos face Sydney Roosters, Melbourne Storm and the Canberra Raiders which is generally when their run starts to wane.
Facing the Storm and Roosters in the final two rounds is a tough end to the season, however they do play three of their last four games at home.
Definitely it’s how Brisbane kick off 2020 that will determine whether they play finals footy.
