One last 'last' for Broncos legend Ali Brigginshaw in NRLW grand final

Ali Brigginshaw, a five-eighth for the Brisbane Broncos, is set to play her final NRLW grand final in 2024. Brigginshaw, along with Julia Robinson and Chelsea Lenarduzzi, are the OGs who have been with the Broncos since the inception of the NRLW in 2018. The Broncos will face the Sydney Roosters in the NRLW grand final on Sunday at 4pm AEDT.

Brigginshaw, 38, has one more NRLW match to play, but her competitive spirit remains as fierce as ever. Despite the Broncos losing eight players from their last grand final side, Brigginshaw believes that the new team, led by superstar halfback Jesse Southwell, has the right people to give themselves the best chance to win. Brigginshaw, Robinson, and Lenarduzzi, affectionately known as the OGs, share a deep bond and passion for the Broncos.

Brigginshaw, who will play against her old rival Jocelyn Kelleher, acknowledges the significance of her final match and her teammates' impact on her journey.
