Episode 61: World Club Challenge Preview
The Thoroughbreds are back for 2026.
In Episode 61, Penalty Broncos kicks off the season with a full preview of the upcoming World Club Challenge clash between the Brisbane Broncos and Hull Kingston Rovers at MKM Stadium.
This isn’t a trial. This isn’t a hit-out. This is a genuine shot at silverware.
The team at Rugby League Daily (https://www.facebook.com/rugbyleaguedailyy) have kindly given us information on our rivals to break down:
- Why this game matters in the global rugby league landscape
- The Robins’ historic 2025 treble season
- The cultural identity of Hull KR and what makes Craven Park one of the toughest atmospheres in England
We dive deep into the team lists, combinations and early-season narratives, including:
- Ben Hunt’s shift to nine and what it means for the spine
- The generational impact of Payne Haas
- Ezra Mam’s breakout potential
- The importance of bench balance under Michael Maguire
- Injury management and tone-setting for 2026
If you’re an NRL fan curious about Super League, or a UK listener wanting to understand what the Broncos represent, this episode sets the table properly.
The 2026 campaign starts here.
