Walsh Wins Clive Churchill; Broncos Beat Storm

News summary

The Brisbane Broncos defeated the Melbourne Storm 26-22 to win the 2025 NRL Grand Final. Reece Walsh was awarded the Clive Churchill Medal after a dominant second-half performance — 176 metres, 14 breaks, a try and three try-assists — and made several game-changing run‑downs and try‑saving tackles while steadying Ben Hunt late in the match. The contest turned on a pivotal disallowed Storm try — Tui Kamikamica was ruled to have committed a clear knock‑on — a decision that swung momentum to the Broncos and was singled out by Storm coach Craig Bellamy, who warned of a hard pre‑season ahead. Coverage collected reactions from players and coaches, and commentators noted the broader context of a season hampered by a long casualty list that shaped finals availability. The grand final attracted high‑profile attendees at Accor Stadium, including Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and several state leaders.
