Penrith Panthers vs Brisbane Broncos Preview

A rematch of the 2023 Grand Final will take place this weekend during Magic Round, with the Penrith Panthers and Brisbane Broncos meeting at Suncorp Stadium on Sunday afternoon. The Panthers are enduring a tough 2025 season, suffering their sixth loss in just eight matches after a 26-10 defeat to Manly last week. In contrast, the Broncos are in much better form, sitting in fifth place after a dominant 42-18 victory over the previously undefeated Bulldogs. Brisbane’s 34-point first half set the tone for a comprehensive win. For Penrith, Luke Garner returns from concussion, but Brad Schneider is sidelined with an eye injury, and Scott Sorensen is suspended, prompting Trent Toelau’s inclusion on the bench. Brisbane will welcome back second-rower Jordan Riki to the starting side after recovering from an infection. Both teams will be eager for a win as they look to gain momentum for the second half of the season.
