Brisbane Broncos vs New Zealand Warriors Preview

The Warriors take genuine premiership momentum to Suncorp Stadium after an impressive 28-12 victory over Penrith followed their 42-6 demolition of Gold Coast. They have won four of their past five and control their top-four destiny, whereas Brisbane has lost 11 of 12 after surrendering a 24-point lead in a 40-32 defeat to the Dolphins. Adam Reynolds remains sidelined, leaving rookie Thomas Duffy alongside Ezra Mam in the halves, while Aublix Tawha returns to Brisbane’s extended bench. The Warriors retain their starting side and welcome Demitric Vaimauga back on the interchange. New Zealand won the Magic Round meeting 42-12 and has performed strongly away from Auckland. Dallin Watene-Zelezniak’s seven-game scoring streak against Brisbane highlights the pressure the Broncos’ edge defence will face if the visitors again establish control through the middle.
