Brisbane Broncos vs Wests Tigers Prediction
Brisbane Broncos welcome the West Tigers to town on Saturday night in the prize time slot, with the visitors looking to bounce back after a heartbreaking loss to the New Zealand Warriors at home. Head coach Benji Marshall was none too pleased with some of the decisions that went against his team in the second half but that will mean little to the Broncos who attempt to find the consistency that has eluded them through the first month of the season.
The Broncos have won the past two matches against the Tigers, prior to that however the joint venture club had peeled off four straight victories.
The Broncos have steadied since their Round 2 mishap in Canberra, however they have been little like the team that were irresistible against the Roosters in the opening match of the season.
The Tigers have shown resilience under Benji Marshall in 2025 and this looms as their biggest challenge so far.
