Episode 82: Going Around The Twist (NRL RND 22 & NRLW RND 5)

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.
