RL:Broncos skipper steps down, opens up on Tallis furore

Brisbane legend Ali Brigginshaw has revealed why she stepped down as captain and addressed the hubbub surrounding the meeting room that was controversially renamed after her.

The 36-year-old will line up in her last season in the NRLW as a player only after making the call to relinquish the captaincy on Wednesday.

The Jillaroos and Queensland great has led the Broncos to four NRLW titles in her 56-game career.

"I've made the decision to step down as captain in my final year," Brigginshaw said.

"I've been thinking about it for the last couple of months and I feel like the time is right. I've done so many amazing things here, but there's a next group of leaders that I want to see come through, and I want to be able to support them in my last year.
