<p>For the third time in NRLW history the Sydney Roosters Women and the Brisbane Broncos Women will meet in the NRLW Grand Final.</p>
<p>Both of these sides have been perennial powerhouses during the NRLW’s short, but memorable history and this season has been no different.</p>
<p>Dominant from day dot, it was almost inevitable that these teams would meet in the big one. The Roosters have made it to this point without dropping any points, while Brisbane have tasted defeat just once this season, of course to the Chooks.</p>
<p>This level of dominance from both sides is an all too familiar story. Of the seven NRLW Grand Finals that have been played to date, only two of them have failed to feature either the Roosters or the Broncos.</p>
<p>As it currently stands it’s the Brisbane Broncos who have the most NRLW premierships of the two teams, and of all time, with three trophies to their name.</p>
<p>The Roosters are only one chip behind the Broncs, and are also the defending champs, having defeated the Sharks 32-28 in last season’s decider.</p>
<p>Who will be adding the 2025 NRLW Premiership to their already bulging trophy cabinet? Let’s find out.</p>

<h2>NRLW Grand Final – Roosters vs Broncos Prediction and Betting Tips</h2>
<p> </p>
<h3>Head-to-Head Prediction</h3>
<p>The NRLW Grand Final presents a fascinating tactical battle between two contrasting styles. The Roosters entered the decider having completed a perfect regular season, claiming the minor premiership without tasting defeat across their campaign.</p>
<p>Their remarkable run has them within touching distance of equalling the men's premiership record of 19 consecutive victories.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, the Broncos finished with the competition's most potent offensive and defensive statistics, accumulating 404 points while conceding just 116.</p>
<p>Their solitary blemish came against Sunday's opponents in Round 3, a result that ultimately cost them top spot on the ladder for the second consecutive year.</p>
<p>The contrasting paths to the grand final tell their own story. Brisbane dominated the Knights in sweltering conditions at Suncorp Stadium, with 21,367 passionate fans witnessing a comprehensive victory.</p>
<p>The Roosters faced a sterner examination against the Sharks, requiring Jocelyn Kelleher's match-winning conversion in her 50th NRLW appearance to secure a nail-biting 17-16 triumph.</p>
<p>Team selection looms as a crucial factor heading into the grand final. Star Roosters forward Amber Hall faces a fitness test on a troublesome calf injury that limited her to just 10 minutes last weekend.</p>
<p>The Kiwi Fern has been named in the reserves as she races against time to prove her availability for the decider.</p>
<p>Brisbane coach Scott Prince has opted for consistency, naming an unchanged 17 from their preliminary final victory.</p>
<p>The stability reflects their confidence in the squad that delivered the season's most impressive statistical performances across both ends of the field.</p>
<p>Several players will reach significant personal milestones during the NRLW Grand Final. Broncos’ fullback Tamika Upton brings up her 50th NRLW appearance, while Roosters custodian Brydie Parker contests her fifth grand final for the club.</p>
<p>The experience factor heavily favours Parker's side, with second-rower Jasmin Strange targeting her third consecutive premiership triumph.</p>
<p>Recent history strongly supports the Roosters' premiership hopes, having claimed victory in their last five encounters against Brisbane. However, the Broncos boast a perfect record at Accor Stadium, winning all four previous matches at the venue.</p>
<p>Throughout this season we have maintained that we would not consider tipping against the Roosters until they gave us a reason to. That reason has still not materialised.</p>
<p>They’ve been perfect up until now and that is how we are tipping them to remain.</p>
<p><strong>Betting tip: </strong>Sydney Roosters Women.</p>
<p> </p>
<h3>First Tryscorer Prediction</h3>
<p>Four-time NRLW premiership-winning fullback Tamika Upton will play her 50th game in the big time this weekend and we can see her celebrating it with the opening try.</p>
<p>Upton has been in otherworldly form this campaign with 19 tries and 14 try assists across 12 appearances and is inline to become the first player in NRLW history to win two Dally M Medals.</p>
<p><strong>Betting tip:</strong> Tamika Upton.</p>
