Broncos on fire as Knights 'scrambling'

The defending NRLW premiers, the Broncos, delivered a commanding performance to secure a 40-16 victory over the Newcastle Knights in their elimination final. The Knights, who had scored their first points in the 16th minute, were overwhelmed by the Broncos' formidable lineup. Romy Teitzel was instrumental in the Broncos' success, scoring a brace of tries, while Tamika Upton and Jesse Southwell also shone with their exceptional skills.

The Broncos led 34-0 at halftime and maintained their dominance throughout the match. Despite a concerning ankle injury to Bree Spreadborough, the Broncos secured their fourth consecutive win and advanced to face the Titans in the preliminary final. The Knights, however, showed improvement in the second half, but ultimately fell short against the formidable Broncos lineup.
