Revision as of 11:36, 8 September 2023

The 2023 Brisbane Broncos season is the 36th in the Brisbane Broncos club history. Competing in the 2023 NRL season, the captain Adam Reynolds and head coach Kevin Walters continued in their roles from the previous year.

At the start of the final round (27) of the regular season, Brisbane was positioned on top of the NRL ladder. Having qualified for the finals, a significant number of regular players were rested. The Melbourne Storm subsequently won 32-22 at Suncorp Stadium and by the end of round 27, Brisbane missed out on their first minor premiership win since 2000 due to a lesser points differential than the Penrith Panthers.^[2]
