The Broncos have us Going Around the Twist—because how can a team with this much talent, fresh off winning the premiership, fall apart this badly?

Britto and Ringer unpack Brisbane’s disastrous 30–6 loss to the Newcastle Knights and the end of the club’s premiership defence. With the similarities to 2024 becoming impossible to ignore, we ask where the responsibility lies: the coaching staff, the game plan, the players—or a combination of everything?

Thankfully, the NRLW Broncos continue to give the Thoroughbreds something to celebrate. The ladies dismantled the Bulldogs 34–4 at Magic Round to improve to 6–0—the best start to a season in the club’s history—with Jesse Southwell once again controlling the contest.

Also covered:

• Billy Walters’ reported contract extension and Brisbane’s crowded hooking rotation

• What the future may hold for Blake Mozer, Cory Paix, Ben Hunt and Cameron Bukowski

• The PNG Chiefs, government funding and the potential impact of an NRL team in Papua New Guinea

• Jaiyden Hunt’s effort-filled performance against Newcastle

• The Gronk’s real-time Cowboys crash-out

Let us know what you think caused Brisbane’s incredible fall from premiership glory—and whether Madge can get this team back on track in 2027.

The computer has crunched the numbers, Thoroughbreds—and somehow, it still says YES.

The Broncos’ premiership defence remains mathematically alive, but the pathway became considerably narrower following an 18–10 loss to the Cowboys in Townsville.

The NRLW Broncos remain undefeated after powering away from the Knights for a 30–12 victory at Totally Workwear Stadium.

The Broncos have finally snapped their eight-game losing streak.

Britto and Langers break down Brisbane’s famous 14–12 victory over the Panthers in atrocious conditions at CommBank Stadium. Reece Walsh took control with three try assists and the match-winning sideline conversion, while Xavier Willison, Kotoni Staggs and the Broncos’ returning stars produced the energy and resilience we have been waiting to see.

We also unpack the week’s Woo-Woo Battle. Kevvie Walters tempted fate with his swipe at the Dolphins, but Willie Mason came to the rescue by declaring the Broncos’ house of cards was about to collapse. Thankfully, Willie’s woo-woo proved stronger.
