Last updated:
Raiders: Apii Nicholls returns from a foot injury at fullback, which means Shakiah Tungai moves back to her customary spot on the wing after filling in there last week and Jessica Gentle drops out of the 17. Sophie Holyman is named to start at prop despite suffering a leg injury against the Broncos, while Elise Smith returns in the second row after being 18th woman in Round 6, with Kere Matua reverting to the bench. Petesa Lio and Ella Ryan drop off the interchange and Ua Ravu comes in for her third appearance of the year.
Knights: Ron Griffiths has made one change to the 17 that defeated the Sharks last week with Tiana Davison coming onto the bench for Felila Kia, who shifts to the reserves. Laishon Albert-Jones accepted a warning for a high tackle on Jada Taylor in Round 6 and is free to play. Viena Tinao came off the field late with a head knock but has been included on the interchange.

Last updated:
Broncos: Ashleigh Werner (head knock) returns on the wing for two-try hero Lauren Dam, who moves to the reserves. Ali Brigginshaw broke her nose against the Raiders and despite looking unrecognisable this week she is on track to play. Jada Ferguson is back on the interchange, replacing Jasmine Fogavini although there could be another reshuffle later in the week given the success the side had last week.
Sharks: There are two forced changes in the backline following the loss of Annessa Biddle (suspension) and Andie Robinson (knee), with Cassie Staples and former Kiwi Fern Kiana Takairangi coming in. The side is otherwise the same as that which took the field in Round 6, with Fatafehi Hanisi listed as the replacement player.

Last updated:
Titans: Rilee Jorgensen and Dannii Perese return to the interchange after missing last week's win over the Dragons which shifts Kaitlyn Phillips and Sophie Buller to the reserves. Lauren Brown looks set to start in the halves again with Sienna Lofipo moving to the interchange.
Wests Tigers: Kezie Apps and Rikeya Horne both failed head injury assessments last week but have been named and will be monitored. If either one is ruled out the likes of Hope Tevaga and Taylor Osborne could come into the side. Sarah Togatuki has accepted a one-match ban for a hip-drop tackle and will miss the clash with Imogen Gobran named to start in her absence. Botille Vette-Welsh returns to fullback with Tess Staines back on the wing while Brett Kimmorley has called in teenage halfback Brooke Talataina for an NRLW debut.

Last updated:
Roosters: Shawden Burton's season is over after scans confirmed an ACL injury so Joeli Morris comes onto the bench while Grace Hamilton returns to the side. Jayme Fressard has been named in jersey No.18 as she continues to make her way back after suffering a concussion in Round 5 with hat-trick debutant Mia Wood keeping her spot on the wing at this stage.
Eels: Just one change to 17 who got the job done in the club's first win of the season last week, with the same starting 13 named but Capri Paekau set to replace Nakia Davis-Welsh on the bench. That could change come kickoff though, with Paekau a late scratching last week after being named on the interchange. Lindsay Tui keeps a spot in the centres after being a late inclusion in Round 6.
