The Sydney Roosters claimed their third NRLW premiership on Sunday, defeating the Brisbane Broncos 30-6 in the grand final at Accor Stadium. The match was defined by a dominant first-half performance from the Roosters, who scored six consecutive tries before the Broncos could respond. This victory marks the conclusion of a historic season for the Roosters, who finished the year undefeated, winning all 11 regular-season games and both of their finals matches.

For the Brisbane Broncos, the loss served as a difficult conclusion to the season and marked the final game for veteran player Ali Brigginshaw. While the Broncos have historically been the most successful club in the competition with four titles, this loss highlights the narrowing gap between the league's top two teams. The two clubs have now combined for seven of the nine total NRLW premierships awarded since the competition's inception. The match was played in favorable weather conditions, drawing attention to the high level of competition displayed throughout the season.
