Brisbane set up dream NRL grand final with thumping victory over New Zealand

The Brisbane Broncos have beaten the New Zealand Warriors 42-12 to book a spot against Penrith in the NRL grand final.

The hosts had too much firepower for the Warriors, with Reece Walsh providing six line-break assists and three try assists in another masterclass.

"I'm happy we got through at the end — a lot of leadership in our team, Adam Reynolds, [Tom] Flegler, or some young boys tonight.The Warriors were out of the blocks first when Dallin Watene-Zelezniak crossed over in the fifth minute, before the Broncos replied through a dummy half run by Billy Walters three minutes later.

Brisbane then took control with a blistering eight-minute attacking raid, which yielded three tries and gave them a 24-8 lead. Always influential, Walsh threw a blatant forward pass that led to a try to Jordan Riki to give the Broncos a 30-12 lead in the 53rd minute.
