The Brisbane Broncos were looking to continue their dominance over the Sydney Roosters and they did just that in Newcastle following their 20-4 victory over the Tricolours.
Things looked good for the Broncos early when rookie Emily Bass was able to keep herself inside the sideline and get over to score after just three minutes.
The Roosters looked to have crossed moments later when off the back of a penalty, Tayla Predebon fought her way to the line and looked to have got the ball to the ground. Despite looking good and being awarded by referee Belinda Sharpe, the bunker stepped in and overturned the decision for a knock on.
Chances were thin for the Roosters who spent more time defending on their own line after consistent errors were able to give the Broncos plenty of field position. The Roosters defence had plenty to be proud off even though they did concede a second try when Roxy Murdoch was able to fight and twist her way to the line and got the ball down under the crossbar.
The second half started as a disaster for the Roosters who continued their error-prone ways and the Broncos took advantage as Emily Bass got her way over for her second try on debut after Shenae Ciesielka put her over.
It was only a matter of minutes later when the Broncos were able to take advantage again through the footwork of Tamika Upton who went through three defenders before linking up with Millie Boyle to score under the posts.
The Roosters were able to get on the board with just over ten minutes to go after Olivia Kernick ran a perfect line to slice through the Broncos defence to score right next to the posts. The conversion missed from close range and the Roosters trailed 20-4.
Although neither side was able to trouble the scorers, both sides had chances to add to their scores only for errors to nullify their chances.
The Broncos march to a fourth successful NRLW title sees them take on the Knights whilst the Roosters have to contend with the Gold Coast Titans.
