The 2023 Queensland Cup season was the 28th season of Queensland's top-level statewide rugby league competition run by the Queensland Rugby League. The competition, known as the Hostplus Cup due to sponsorship, features 15 teams playing a 26-week long season (including finals) from March to September. The Brisbane Tigers won the competition for the first time in their history, defeating minor premiers Burleigh Bears in the Grand Final on 17 September.

Teams

In 2023, the line-up of teams changed for the first time in 8 years with the addition of the Western Clydesdales. The North Queensland Cowboys changed their affiliation agreement, with the Cowboys sending all NRL contracted players not selected in their weekly squad to just the Townsville Blackhawks.

On 15 June, the Brisbane Broncos annulled their affiliation agreement with the Norths Devils after the Devils announcement that they had signed a four-year affiliation agreement with the Dolphins from 1 November 2023 ahead of the 2024 season. In response to the news, the Brisbane Broncos would remove their players from the Devils for the remainder of the season.

  • In the days following the announcement of the changes to their NRL affiliation, the Norths Devils won a stunning 23–22 victory over the Redcliffe Dolphins after trailing 22–6 at half time, for their first win away to the Dolphins in over a decade.

  • In the final round of the regular season, Burleigh Bears secured their second straight minor premiership with their 20–12 win over the Townsville Blackhawks.

First half

Brisbane Tigers scored the first try of the match in the 13th minute when prop forward Tristan Powell stepped through the Burleigh Bears defence after receiving the ball 10 metres out from the tryline. Powell able to shake off would-be tacklers to plant the ball over the line close to the posts. Tigers halfback Jonah Pezet added the two point conversion goal to take the Tigers to a 6–0 lead. With 13 minutes left until half time, the Bears were able to make a break down their right flank, with a passing move finding winger Tony Francis to score in the corner. Keano Kini's footwork and flick pass unlocking the Tigers defence. A few minutes later, an attempted 40–20 kick from Burleigh halfback Guy Hamilton caught out Brisbane fullback Corey Thompson, with Thompson's attempt to keep the ball in play landing directly in the hands of Francis who crossed for his second try.

Trailing 8–6 after the try, Pezet put a high kick up with six minutes left in the half in the direction of the Bears tryline and teammate Kane Bradley was able to out-jump Keano Kini to score the Tigers second try, with Pezet's conversion taking the score to 12–8.

Second half

Jonah Pezet would extend the Tigers lead just after the break through a penalty goal, and then against the run of play, Max Lehmann ran nearly the length of the field after taking an intercept pass from Guy Hamilton. Lehmann able to outrun Keano Kini to take the score to 20–8. With just over 20 minutes to play, Hamilton has able to set up a try for Bears captain Sami Sauiluma to score, bringing the margin back to six points. Two dangerous tackles from Tigers hooker Tristan Hope saw him put on report, and Bears forward Vaka Sikahele taken off on the medicab. Sikahele looked to have suffered a dislocated patella in the second incident.

A few minutes later Tony Francis scored his third try of the match after a fortuitous bounce. With Tyrone Roberts unable to convert the try from out wide, the Tigers still held a slender 20–18 lead. Francis should have scored a fourth try in the 74th minute, but he failed to ground the ball over the line in the corner.

Pezet would again add to the Tigers score with two points coming from his boot after referee Tyson Brough awarded the Tigers a penalty with four minutes left.

In a frantic finish, the Tigers were able to hold out the Bears in the final minutes, with Jordan Grant sent to the sin-bin in the final seconds before full time.

Burleigh fullback Keano Kini won the Duncan Hall Medal as player of the match, but the premiership went to the Tigers with first-year coach Matt Church quoted as saying "Just so proud of the group. If someone told me 12 months ago this could've been a possibility, I wouldn't have believed them. I'm choking back tears now. It means so much... our long-suffering fans, it's been 32 years."
