Wynnum Manly finished the regular season in second and were defeated by third-placed Burleigh in the second qualifying final. They then eliminated defending premiers Dolphins in the semi-final and travelled to Townsville, where they defeated the Blackhawks in the preliminary final to qualify for their third Grand Final. After defeating Wynnum Manly in the qualifying final, Burleigh earned a week off and faced minor premiers the Sunshine Coast, who they beat 20–6 to qualify for their sixth Grand Final.

First half

Burleigh got the scoring underway in the Grand Final, kicking a penalty goal in the 14th minute. They scored the first try of the game six minutes later when winger Tyronne Roberts-Davis scored in the left corner untouched. Another try in the 30th minute extended their lead to 12 after Jamal Fogarty grubbered through the line and regathered, finding Kurtis Rowe in support, who scored next to the posts. Wynnum Manly finally got on the scoreboard in the 34th minute, when halfback Sam Scarlett dived on his own kick after a Burleigh error in the in-goal.

Second half

Wynnum opened the second half strongly, with a try to winger Edward Burns from a Patrick Templeman kick, bringing them within two points of Burleigh. The Bears hit back shortly after, when Rowe caught a bouncing Dylan Phythian kick to score his second try of the game. In the 67th minute, hooker Pat Politoni extended Burleigh's lead to 12 when he darted over from dummy half to score. Burleigh sealed the victory, and their fourth premiership, when Fogarty picked up a Seagulls' kick and ran 90 metres untouched to score under the posts. Kurtis Rowe was awarded the Duncan Hall Medal for man of the match for his two-try effort.[5][6]

NRL State Championship

After winning the Grand Final, the Burleigh Bears qualified for the NRL State Championship on NRL Grand Final day. They were defeated by the Newtown Jets, the New South Wales Cup premiers, 16–20.[7][8]
