2022 Queensland Cup


The 2022 Queensland Cup season was the 27th 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, featured 14 teams playing a 24-week long season from March to September.
It is the first season played under Hostplus sponsorship, after 11 seasons known as the Intrust Super Cup.
Norths Devils won their second consecutive grand final, defeating the Redcliffe Dolphins 16–10 to take their third Queensland Cup premiership.

Teams

In 2022, the line-up of teams remained unchanged for the eighth consecutive season. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the PNG Hunters were based out of the Gold Coast for the second consecutive season, playing their home games at Runaway Bay's Bycroft Oval. The Hunters were able eventually to return to Port Moresby to play their final match of the season at the National Football Stadium.
