Legendary Kiwi rugby league coach Sir Graham Lowe believes the Brisbane Broncos can go all the way to the grand final and a possible showdown with the minor premiers, Canberra Raiders.
It would set up the decider we never got in the early 1990s when both were superpowers of the NSWRL.
“I do think the boys from Brisbane have the class to make the 2025 NRL season their own,” the former Manly, Wigan and North Queensland coach wrote for Local News Group.
“However, the Canberra Raiders are a team that could blow the Broncos’ dreams for this year right out of contention, but we will see.
“Raiders coach Ricky Stuart has done an absolutely fantastic job with his team and doesn’t have the natural talent to call on like other clubs for example, the Broncos and Storm.
“But he has every one of his players playing to their potential – few other coaches can say that.”
The Broncos host Melbourne tonight at Suncorp in a final round blockbuster while the Raiders head to Redcliffe.
