The Sydney Roosters enter the NRLW Grand Final on an impressive 18-game unbeaten streak and as reigning Premiers and Minor Premiers. Despite this record, they are regarded as underdogs against the Brisbane Broncos. The Roosters' players and coaching staff remain unfazed by this status, emphasizing their pride in reaching the final and their focus on preparation.

Brisbane's star fullback, Tameka Upton, is seen as a significant challenge for the Roosters. Upton is tipped to potentially become the first woman to win dual Dally M medals, underscoring her impact on the game and the importance of her performance in the upcoming match.

Roosters face Broncos as underdogs in NRLW Grand Final

The Roosters are on an 18-game unbeaten streak, the reigning Premiers and minor Premiers, but remarkably head into Sunday's NRLW Grand Final as the underdogs to the Broncos. I don't actually mind too much. I think the fact that we're there and in the Grand Final is something that I'm really proud of and we don't really pay too much attention to anything like that, which I think is something that comes from our head coach and something that, yeah, he's really instilled in us. The side admits it will be a massive task taking down Brisbane's star fullback Tameka Upton. She's tipped to become the first woman to claim dual Dallium medals.
