The 2018 Brisbane Broncos season is the 31st in the club's history. This rugby league team is based in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Coached by Wayne Bennett, and captained by Darius Boyd, they completed the NRL's 2018 Telstra Premiership regular season in the number six position, qualifying for the finals.[1] They were defeated in the 2nd Elimination Final by St George-Illawarra and did not progress further.[2]

Season summary

Pre-season

The Broncos entered the 2018 season looking to rebound from their disappointing 2017 finals campaign. The club recruited Jack Bird, Matthew Lodge, Andre Savelio and Sam Tagataese, while long-serving halfback Ben Hunt departed for the St. George Illawarra Dragons. Internationals Adam Blair, Herman Ese'ese, Benji Marshall, David Mead and Tautau Moga had also departed the club. Expectations were high despite the roster changes, with coach Wayne Bennett entering his 25th season as an NRL head coach.

Early season

Brisbane opened their season with a 34–12 loss to St George Illawarra against Ben Hunt for the first time, before rebounding with close victories over the North Queensland Cowboys and Wests Tigers. Rookie winger Jamayne Isaako quickly emerged as one of the club's breakout players, establishing himself as the side's primary goal-kicker and leading point scorer.

The Broncos struggled for consistency during the opening months of the competition, suffering losses to the Gold Coast Titans, Newcastle Knights and Melbourne Storm, but remained within reach of the top eight due to several close wins.

Mid-season

During the middle portion of the season, Brisbane began to improve defensively and recorded several important away victories over the New Zealand Warriors, Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks and Canberra Raiders. Young forwards Tevita Pangai Junior, Joe Ofahengaue and debutant David Fifita became increasingly influential in the side's forward pack.

The season also marked several milestones for senior players. Sam Thaiday played his 300th NRL game in Round 22 against the North Queensland Cowboys, while coach Wayne Bennett reached 800 first-grade games coached in Round 12.

Increasing media speculation surrounded the future of coach Wayne Bennett. Despite Brisbane remaining inside the top eight for much of the year, inconsistent form and pressure for long-term improvement led to reports that the Broncos board was considering a coaching succession plan. Anthony Seibold, who was coaching the South Sydney Rabbitohs at the time, was regularly linked to the role as speculation regarding Bennett's future continued throughout the season.

Finals push

Brisbane won six of their final eight regular-season matches to secure a sixth-place finish on the ladder with 15 wins from 24 matches. The Broncos recorded notable victories over the South Sydney Rabbitohs, Sydney Roosters and Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles during the closing rounds to confirm their finals position.

Corey Oates finished the season as the club's leading try-scorer with 18 tries, while Jamayne Isaako scored 239 points in his rookie campaign.

Finals series

Brisbane qualified for the finals series for the ninth consecutive season and hosted an elimination final against the St. George Illawarra Dragons at Suncorp Stadium. Despite entering the match in strong form, the Broncos were defeated 48–18, ending their season in the first week of the finals.

NRLW (Women's)

In September 2018, the NRL Women's Premiership (NRLW) held its inaugural season, featuring four teams: the Brisbane Broncos Women, New Zealand Warriors Women, St. George Illawarra Dragons Women and the Sydney Roosters Women.

The Broncos finished the round-robin stage undefeated (3–0), securing the inaugural minor premiership, while the other three teams each finished 1–2. The Broncos went on to win the Grand Final, defeating the Sydney Roosters 34–12 to claim the competition’s inaugural premiership. The match was played at Stadium Australia as a curtain-raiser to the 2018 NRL Grand Final.

The team was coached by Paul Dyer[50] and captained by Ali Brigginshaw with Brittany Breayley vice-captain.[51]

Feeder clubs

In 2018, the Broncos feeder teams were the Norths Devils, Redcliffe Dolphins, Souths Logan Magpies and Wynnum Manly Seagulls. Only the Dolphins made the finals, while the Magpies dropped out from last year's finals teams; the other two again failed to finish inside the top 6 for another year.
