2025 NRLW Signings Tracker: Cowboys extend Whitfeld; New deal for Aiken

The Cowboys have agreed to a three-year contract extension with Jillaroos star Jakiya Whitfeld through to the end of the 2028 NRLW season.

Whitfeld joined the Cowboys prior to the 2024 season after a year apiece with the Knights and Wests Tigers.

The 24-year-old scored six tries in nine games during her maiden Cowboys campaign which culminated with her being named Cowboys NRLW Players’ Player.

“Jakiya has been an incredible asset to our club since joining in 2024. Her competitive spirit and high standards inspires our squad to strive for excellence,” said coach Ricky Henry,

“She is a true student of the game, dedicating endless hours to improving her skills and football IQ. Her bravery is unmatched and exemplifies her unique qualities as a football player."

The Sharks have signed Indigenous All stars prop Tommaya Kelly-Sines for the 2025 season.

The powerful 30-year-old from Kempsey has tallied 16 first-grade appearances over the past three seasons with stints at Parramatta and Canberra.

"Tommaya adds important depth and power to our stocks in the middle," said Sharks coach Tony Herman.

"She's proven herself to be a consistent NRLW performer and still has untapped potential. We're excited to see her push for a place in our best 17 this year."

The Roosters have secured a key piece of their premiership puzzle after locking down reigning Golden Boot winner Tarryn Aiken on a two-year contract extension. 

The playmaker led the side to last year's NRLW title, claiming the Karyn Murphy Medal after a dominant grand-final display. 

Aiken will now remain with the Roosters through to the end of 2027 as they look to go back-to-back this year.

"I'm incredibly proud to extend my time with the Sydney Roosters," said Aiken.

"I absolutely love this club and this team; it’s felt like home since day one. The culture, the people, and the way we push each other to be better every day – it’s really special and I’m excited about what the future holds."

The Sharks have also retained a key figure as they look to go one better in 2025, with local junior Quincy Dodd inking a two-year extension. 

The deal will keep the hooker at Cronulla through to 2027, with Dodd eager to build on the foundation laid over the club's first two seasons.

"Every time I put this jersey on it means so much to me and my team, my family, the community and everyone around me. I wouldn't be here without them.

"It's been a dream come true for a while now. I remember being at the back of Shark Park on the hill playing footy with my brothers and having the best time, but never really realising that NRLW was going to be a thing or that females could play rugby league on this field.

"To be a part of that in this community and area, I wouldn't have it any other way.

"I'm happy to be here and I don't think I'll be going anywhere."

Tongan International Natasha Penitani will call the Gold Coast home for the next three seasons as the latest inclusion to bolster the Titans forward pack in 2025.

The 25-year-old moves to Queensland from the Wests Tigers, where she made her NRLW debut in 2024 after impressing for Tonga in the inaugural Pacific Championships alongside older sister Tiana Penitani Gray.

Set to offer Karyn Murphy with plenty of versatility up front, the Titans coach is pleased to welcome Penitani to her squad.

"We’re really fortunate to have a player like Natasha join our squad for the next three seasons and be available to join us immediately," she said.

"She’s a strong-running, agile forward with ball-playing ability, which gives her the versatility to play anywhere in the middle or on the edge for us.

"I’ve watched her the past few seasons, especially last year at the Wests Tigers and then for Tonga at the Pacific Championships and her signing is a big acquisition for us to complete our squad as we get closer to the season kicking off.

"Most importantly, she’s a great person and I have no doubt she’ll fit into our Titans team nicely with the connections she already has with a number of our players given her time in both the NRLW and international game previously."

The Dragons, meanwhile, have signed young gun Trinity Tauaneai through to the end of the 2027 season.

The 18-year-old makes the leap up to the top squad for the first time having captained Illawarra’s Tarsha Gale Cup side to a preliminary final earlier this year.

Trinity is a player who has shown plenty of promise coming through the grades and we’re excited she’ll be a Dragon for another few seasons,” said coach Nathan Cross.

“She moves into our top squad this year after being on the development list last year. She’s started pre-season on the right foot and will push for a debut this season."

Cowboys stars Emma Manzelmann, Lily Peacock and Jasmine Peters have signed contract extensions in a major boost for the club.

Manzelmann and Peacock inked three-year extensions through to the end of 2028 and Peters a further two years through to the end of 2027.

When the Cowboys entered the competition in 2023, Manzelmann was their inaugural NRLW signing, arriving at the club on the back of her 2022 premiership success with Newcastle.

At just 19, Peacock has emerged as one of the best young middle forwards in Queensland after a breakout 2024 campaign while Peters has appeared in all 18 games across the Cowboys’ first two NRLW campaigns, scoring seven tries.

“This is a proud day for our club to extend three women from the North Queensland region who have worked extremely hard to reach this point in their careers,” said Cowboys coach Ricky Henry.

Wests Tigers have signed former New Zealand rugby sevens player Terina Te Tamaki for the upcoming NRLW season.

Terina received an Olympic silver medal as part of the NZ Sevens team at the 2016 Rio Olympics, becoming, at that time, the youngest female Olympic medallist from New Zealand.

Earlier, the Tigers continued their long-term retention spree with star prop Sarah Togatuki signing a three-year contract extension. 

The deal comes after Tigers captain Kezie Apps committed to the club through to 2029, with Togatuki now set to remain with the side until at least the end of 2028. 

The duo played a key role in NSW's recent State of Origin series victory and their now set to provide a long-term platform for the Tigers. 

"Sala is a true leader in our squad, both on and off the field," Tigers coach Brett Kimmorley said. 

"She’s one of the best in the business, and her experience is vital for the development of our young forwards. Having her re-commit to the club is a massive win for all of us."

The Titans have announced the signing of forward Jayda Lofipo for the 2025 season, joining her sister Siena at the club.

the 22-year-old joins from Wynnum Manly after 33 appearances in the BMD Premiership since debuting in 2020 - earning player of the year honours for the Seagulls last season.

"Jayda brings high level of footy IQ together with energy and aggression through the middle and she’s not afraid to take the tough carries, which is why she'll be a great addition to our squad," said Titans coach Karyn Murphy.

The Dragons have re-signed youngster Charlotte Basham through to the end of the 2026 season.

The 19-year-old was an Australian Schoolgirls representative in 2023 and made her NRLW debut in the Dragons’ final game of 2023, just nine days on from her 18th birthday.

"It’s really exciting to know I’ll be a Dragon for at least the next two seasons. I’ve come through the system here and have some really good relationships with teammates and staff, especially the girls I’ve come through the grades with," said Basham, who played seven matches in 2024.

The Newcastle Knights has secured a key piece of their puzzle by extending the contract of NSW Origin second-rower Yasmin Clydsdale until at least the end of the 2027 season.

Clydsdale is a world class player and two-time Knights premiership winner, who has held a permanent position with the Blues since 2020 and the Australian Jillaroos since 2022.

The long-term extension adds another key pillar to the Knights NRLW strategy and rewards a dedicated club person, who gives her all every day in every way.

Knights coach Ben Jeffries said this deal was a major priority in the club’s forward vision.

“Yasmin’s desire to be the very best is infectious and demands respect from her teammates,” Jeffries said.

“There is a reason why Yasmin is a back-to-back premiership winner and decorated representative player, her competitive edge and determination to compete on everything, every single day, is inspirational.

“Yasmin also has a unique ability to bring people together, which makes her a natural leader."

Wests Tigers have signed Queensland Origin representative Emily Bass and Samoan international Pihuka Berryman-Duff for the upcoming season.

Bass, who debuted for the Broncos in 2021 and has spent the past two seasons at the Titans, said she was excited for the opportunity to play under the coaching of Brett Kimmorley and Greg Inglis. 

"The chance to learn from the likes of Brett Kimmorley and Greg Inglis, alongside an inspiring leader such as Kezie Apps is something I value, and I can’t wait to make my mark as a Wests Tiger," Bass said.

Berryman-Duff, a Maori All Stars touch representative, has played nine NRLW matches for Parramatta and represented Fetu Samoa in 2023.

The signings follow the retention of Kezie Apps through to the end of the 2029 NRLW season.

The Wests Tigers, NSW and Jillaroos great made her state and Test debuts in 2014, four years before the introduction of the NRLW competition.

The 2016 Dally M Medal winner, Apps joined the Wests Tigers NSW Women’s Premiership team ahead of the 2022 season, helping them to premiership victory in her debut season with the club.

Christian Pio has also extended her stay with Wests Tigers for a further two seasons and will remain until the end of the 2027 season.

Meanwhile, the Dragons have rounded out their squad for the 2025 season with the signing of veteran No.9 Nita Maynard on a two-year deal.

A crafty dummy-half, Maynard made her NRLW debut for the Roosters in the premiership’s inaugural season back in 2018.

Maynard has made 37 NRLW appearances and won a premiership with the Knights in 2023.

Dragons forward Ella Koster has inked a two-year extension through to the end of the 2027 season.

The Albion Park-Oak Flats Eagles junior made her NRLW debut in Round 1, 2023 and last year helped lead the Steelers to a Tarsha Gale Cup premiership before representing the NSW Blues under 19s.

The Raiders have signed New Zealand rugby union convert Isabella Waterman after Shakiah Tungai’s decision to sit out the 2025 season.

The 25-year-old joins the Raiders following a year at the Newcastle Knights last season, where she played two games. She was also part of the Knights Harvey Norman NSW Women’s Premiership team that made the 2024 grand final.  

Waterman comes from a rugby background, having played the last three seasons for Hurricanes Poua in the Super Rugby Aupiki competition, as well as playing a season for Matatū.

Tungai, who has played 26 NRLW games across six seasons with the Dragons, Broncos and Raiders, has decided to take some time away from the game.

“After careful and thoughtful consideration, I have decided to step away from the upcoming season to focus on some personal commitments,” Tungai said.

“I want to wish the team continued success and I can't wait to watch the girls rip in."

The Sydney Roosters have announced the signing of Jayde Herdegen for the 2025 NRLW season, completing the club’s Top 24 squad.

The 20-year-old half has represented Queensland at both Under 17 (2021) and Under 19 (2022) levels, also earning player of the match honours in the Under 17s Queensland Country v City clash (2021). Most recently, she has been a strong performer for Wynnum Manly Seagulls (2022-2024) in the QRL's BMD Premiership.

The Bulldogs have filled their roster for their inaugural NRLW season with the signings of Vani Buleki, Monica Tagoai, Simina Lokotui and Lahnayah Mahakitau-Monschau

Buleki and Tagoai both have rugby union backgrounds and formally finalise the club’s Top 24, while Lokotui and Mahakitau-Monschau will elevate from the Tarsha Gale Cup squad to development contract status.  

The Bulldogs inaugural NRLW squad will begin their pre-season training on Monday, May 12 before taking the field for their first match on Friday, July 4 against the Knights.

The Broncos have announced the signing of rugby union converts Azalleyah Maaka and Kerri Johnson, with the pair signing until the end of the 2026 season.

Maaka, 24, won a gold medal with the New Zealand rugby sevens team at the 2018 Youth Olympic Games, while 22-year-old played Johnson played Super Rugby for Melbourne Rebels and Auckland Blues.

Broncos NRLW veteran Tazmin Rapana has announced her immediate retirement from rugby league, due to medical reasons. 

The 29-year-old is officially stepping down from all forms of the game after a decorated career, breaking the news to teammates in at Red Hill on Tuesday. 

“I’m very thankful to the club, it’s been a time for my family and I to sit down and reflect on the career that I’ve had and to be able to retire and leave the jersey in a place where I respected it enough to pass it on,” Rapana told the squad. 

The second-rower has played 32 NRLW games since its inception in 2018, 10 State of Origin matches for Queensland as well as more Interstate Challenge match and also represented the Australian Jillaroos on the international stage. 

Despite having one year left on her Broncos contract, the Māori All Star revealed it became clear at the end of last year that it was time to “hang up the boots”.

“Obviously, it's an emotional time for both myself and everyone that's sacrificed or played alongside me and a lot of my close friends,” she said. 

“Playing rugby league, you need to be physically fit and mentally fit and I feel like at the back end of last year, I was kind of finding it hard to have both those combinations.

“So that's why I made the call, my body wasn't ready, and then mentally, I knew I just needed to hang the boots up and hand the jersey over to the next generation.”

The Warriors have also completed their roster for their return season to the NRLW with the acquisition of local product Avery-Rose Carmont.

Head coach Ronald Griffiths said the 23-year-old hooker had been on the club’s radar for some time before being signed.

Carmont is the daughter of former Newcastle Knight George Carmont.

Playmaker Patricia Maliepo has become the latest Black Ferns rugby union international to switch codes after signing a one-year deal to join the Warriors for their return to the NRLW this season.

Primarily a five-eighth, the 22-year-old 10-Test Black Fern has been confirmed as the club’s 23rd squad member just days after helping the Blues win the Super Rugby Aupiki title for the second straight year.

The Knights have extended the contract of Kiwi international and NRLW premiership winner Shanice Parker until at least the end of the 2028 season.

Coach Ben Jeffries said the re-signing of the 2022 Knights Player of the Year was a crucial part for the club’s long-term plans.

Titans forward Shannon Mato will sit out the 2025 NRLW season to give birth to a child.

She joins fellow Titan Evania Isa'ako (née Pelite) in taking time out from their rugby league careers in 2025 to have a baby.

The recently married Isa'ako featured for Samoa in the Pacific Championships late last year and is expected to return to the playing field for the 2026 season.

Murphy, however, is planning for the future, with Destiny Mino-Sinapati extending her time on the Gold Coast through to 2026.

The talented back had a remarkable breakout season in 2023 that included a grand final appearance; before a devastating setback saw her miss the entirety of 2024 with a knee injury.

The news comes after the club confirmed that star winger Jaime Chapman has signed a long-term deal to remain at the Gold Coast. 

The NSW and Australian representative inked a contract extension that ties her to the Titans until the end of the 2027 season. 

The club have also announced that rising rookie Takoda Thompson joins the squad for the next two seasons.

The 18-year-old young gun joined the club's female academy at the start of 2025 after an impressive junior career on the Sunshine Coast, winning back-to-back player of the year honours in the Harvey Norman Under 19 Premiership with the Falcons.

The Raiders have announced the signing of Jordyn Preston for the 2025 NRLW season.

Preston made her NRLW debut for the St George-Illawarra Dragons in 2024, playing two games. The centre was also named the Illawarra Steelers Player of the Year in 2024 after being part of the Harvey Norman NSW Women’s Premiership-winning team.

Preston completes the Raiders Top 24 squad for 2025, taking the final place in the squad after Claudia Finau was ruled out for the season following an ACL injury.

Brooke Anderson has signed on with St George Illawarra Dragons on a two-year deal spanning over the 2026 and 2027 seasons.

The 29-year-old has played 25 NRLW games across stints at Parramatta and Cronulla to go along with her Origin cap for New South Wales and a half-dozen Tests for the Kiwi Ferns.

“Brooke is going to be a fantastic addition for our club,” coach Nathan Cross said.

“Her skillset, toughness, and leadership will add plenty to our forward pack. She’s a great competitor who has played in big games and understands what it takes to be successful at the highest level." 

Star fullback Teagan Berry has also signed a contract extension with the Dragons.

The deal with see the 22-year-old remain with the club until at least the end of the 2026 NRLW season.
