The Sharks have re-signed Jillaroos forward Ellie Johnston and Maroons playmaker Georgia Hannaway to one-year extensions.

Both players were under contract for 2026 but have inked new deals that will see them remain in the Shire until at least the end of the 2027 season.

Johnston has played 33 of her 48 NRLW matches for Cronulla, where she has established herself as one of the game's most powerful and consistent forwards.

"I'm so grateful to be able to spend another year at the Sharks," said Johnston, who ascended to the starting NSW Sky Blues and Jillaroos line-ups in 2025.

"Cronulla is my home away from home and it's exactly where I want to be.

"I've been at the Sharks since 2023 and I've grown so much as a player and a person."

Hannaway arrived at Cronulla in 2024, earning the club's NRLW Rookie of the Year award and helping the team reach their maiden grand final.

Equally at home in the halves or at hooker, Hannaway has racked up 20 games for the Sharks across the past two seasons and made her Origin debut in 2025.

"Re-signing with the Sharks was a no-brainer for me," Hannaway said.

"I love the club, I love the team and I love being in the Shire.

"I absolutely love the culture and positive energy we have in this team. I really adore the way we all light up when we see each other. 

"This year I'm excited for us to take our game to the next level and show everyone what Sharks footy is made of."

The North Queensland Cowboys have upgraded Cook Islands representative Lydia Turua-Quedley to their top 24 squad, signing her up until the end of the 2027 season.

Normally a halfback, Turua-Quedley debuted in the NRLW with the Warriors last season, also playing hooker and coming off the interchange.

Meanwhile, Kiwi Ferns stars Angelina Teakaraanga-Katoa and Alexis Tauaneai are set to return to the Dragons in 2027.

Teakaraanga-Katoa proved a revelation during her two seasons as a Dragon growing into a leader of the forward pack en route to a Kiwi Ferns debut at the end of 2023.

Tauaneai, who will reunite with sisters Trinity and Paige, also debuted for St George Illawarra in 2023 and along with Teakaraanga-Katoa moved to the Bulldogs last season. 

The pair shared St George Illawarra's 2024 NRLW Player of the Year Award. 

“I’m looking forward to next season with the Dragons. It’s familiar territory for me, but this decision certainly wasn’t easy,” Teakaraanga-Katoa said.

“It’s an exciting period ahead for the Dragons and I’m excited to meet the new girls as well as the familiar faces. Right now, my full focus is on the season in front of me with the Dogs, but when the time comes, I’ll be ready to embrace the Red V again.”

Dragons coach Nathan Cross shared Teakaraanga-Katoa’s excitement for the coming years. 

“Teka will add so much to our club, and we can’t wait to welcome her back,” Cross said.

“She has grown into an incredible player over the past few seasons. Her power, leg-speed, and work ethic will help strengthen our forward pack immensely. I’ll be looking to her to lead and nurture the young talent we have coming through our system. Teka will play a big role in what we are building moving forward.”

A native of Wainuiomata - a suburb of Lower Hutt on New Zealand’s North Island - Tauaneai made her NRLW debut for the Dragons in Round 1, 2023 and spent two seasons with St George Illawarra.

After making her international debut for New Zealand in their 2024 Pacific Championships campaign and has played in six Tests over the past two years.

“We’re ecstatic to be bringing Lex back to the club,” Dragons coach Nathan Cross said.

“She has developed into one of the best forwards in the competition and has so much footy still in front of her. She adds a different dynamic to our team with her athleticism, work-rate, and leadership qualities.

"She fits the mould of what we are looking in for a player. She’s as good a person off the field as she is a player on it and we’re so excited to be welcoming her back to the Dragons.”

Trinity Tauaneai last year took home St George Illawarra's NRLW Emerging Talent Award, while Paige again finds herself on a development deal for the 2026 season.

The club has also promoted local product Skye Spencer into the club’s NRLW squad.

A Corrimal Cougars junior, Spencer will join the club’s development list in 2027 before moving into the top squad in 2028.

The deal will see the Australian Schoolgirls representative become the first player in club history to progress through the pipeline from Lisa Fiaola Cup, Tarsha Gale Cup, and the Dragons NRLW Academy into the NRLW.

Wests Tigers have secured the services of Australian and NSW representative Shaylee Bent for the next two seasons after she was granted a release on compassionate grounds by the Titans.

Bent has amassed 51 NRLW games for the Dragons and Titans since her debut in 2019, placing her seventh on the competition’s all-time appearance list.

“It’s an exciting time to be joining the club, I’ve spoken to the girls about what’s been happening over the off-season and it’s something I’m looking forward to being a part of,” said Bent, who has represented the Indigenous All Stars on seven occasions.

“I know a lot of the girls already through different rep camps, and I can see the quality that we have in this squad. It’s an exciting opportunity and one I think will really benefit my game."

Bent joins Craig Sandercock’s squad as a replacement player for Jade Fonua, who recently announced she was expecting her first child and will be unavailable for the 2026 season. 

The Broncos have signed Dutch international Linneke Gevers on a supplementary contract for the 2026 NRLW season.

The 28-year-old began her career in rugby union in Reek, the Netherlands and was looking for a new sporting challenge when she was encouraged by a friend to try rugby league.

Her first exposure to the sport came on the international stage, where she represented the Dutch side in the World Cup European Qualifiers against Greece, Italy, Ireland and Wales.

It was Netherlands Coach Brett Davidson who urged Gevers to take the leap and move to Australia to pursue rugby league, where she has been playing with Tweed Seagulls in the BMD Premiership. 

Emerging superstar Indie Bostock has signed a two-year deal with the Gold Coast in a major recruitment coup for the Titans. 

The 19-year-old joins the club immediately after securing an early release from her deal with the Dragons. 

Long touted as one of the hottest young talents in the game, Bostock enjoyed a sensational debut NRLW season last year. 

The NSW Under 19 representative will now spend the next two seasons with the Titans and add significant firepower to a backline already boasting Jaime Chapman and Phoenix-Raine Hippi. 

"Indie is a player with enormous upside. She’s competitive, instinctive and plays with real confidence," Gold Coast coach Karyn Murphy said.

"What stood out to us most is her willingness to keep improving her game, especially having already achieved so much in her young career.

"She’ll add genuine pace to our backline and we’re excited to see her develop further in Titans colours over the next two seasons." 

Premiership winner Jada Ferguson has signed a long-term contract extension with the Broncos through until the end of 2029.

Ferguson joined the Broncos as a 19-year-old in 2021 and has since developed into a key member of the cub’s NRLW squad.

The 23-year-old hooker played a key role in the Broncos’ 2025 premiership-winning campaign, appearing in all 13 games and scoring four tries - including one in the decider.

“Brisbane and the Broncos have done a lot for me off the field and on the field,” Ferguson said.

“I really love the club, the girls and being around this environment.

“This is my second family… I love coming here, I love training and it doesn’t feel like a job, it’s more for fun.”

Rising star Lily Patston has put pen to paper on a contract extension for the 2026 season with the Titans.

The 24-year-old made her debut in Round 2 last year against the Broncos, going on to play four games before a syndesmosis injury cut her maiden season short.

The younger sibling of NRL forward Josh, the duo created history last year as the first brother-sister duo to represent the Titans for their respective sides.

"Lily is someone who brings a great attitude to our environment every day and has worked extremely hard to continue developing as a player," said Titans coach Karyn Murphy.

"Despite only being relatively new to rugby league, she has already demonstrated great game awareness and skill and we’ve seen her grow in confidence as part of our NRLW system."

The Dragons have announced that Shenae Ciesiolka has agreed to join the club on a four-year deal, effective immediately.

The deal will see the 28-year-old - who has spent the past six season with the Broncos - contracted with the club until at least the end of the 2029 season.

The two-time premiership winner is an 11-time Queensland and three-time Australian representative.

“It is massive for us to add Shenae to our squad,” head coach Nathan Cross said.

“She’s accomplished a lot in this game and will add another dimension to our backline."

The Bulldogs have also announced the signing of rising NRLW star Evah McEwen for the 2026 and 2027 seasons. 

McEwen joins the club from the Newcastle Knights, where she played 11 NRLW games over two seasons. 

The powerful second-rower has had a rapid rise in the women’s game, earning selection in the Under 19s NSW Origin squad and also making her international debut for Samoa in 2024. 

The Bulldogs have also secured the services of rugby convert Daynah Nankivell for the 2026 season. 

Nankivell joins the cub from Japanese club Yokohama TKM, with whom she recently won the National Women’s Rugby Championship title.

"Daynah is a natural talent, who will provide great depth to our outside backs and her experience from being in a professional rugby union environment will only be beneficial to our young squad," said Bulldogs coach Brayden Wiliame.

Premiers Brisbane have granted Shenae Ciesiolka an immediate release from her playing contract.

After joining the Broncos in 2020, Ciesiolka played 40 matches and was part of two premiership-winning campaigns.

The Knights have also bolstered their side with the announcement of three new contracts. 

The Titans have locked in emerging playmaker Lilianah Lewis on a deal through to the end of 2028. 

The teenager will remain in the club's Future Titans development program in 2026 before progressing to the NRLW squad for the 2027 and 2028 seasons. 

Lewis led Marsden State High School to last year's National Schoolgirl Cup victory and is viewed as a future star. 

"Lil is exactly the type of player we want at the heart of our future, so locking her in is incredibly exciting," Titans coach Karyn Murphy said.

"Even at a young age, she’s stood out in the respective lower grades and was most impressive in our recent pathways match against the Knights with her ability to lead the team around and control the match with the No.7 on her back.

"With Lil in our elite pathway program this year, she’ll continue to grow alongside our squad, and we’re excited to see the impact she’ll make in 2027 as she joins our top 24 squad."

Emerging prop Grace Giampino has signed a contract extension through to the end of 2028, with former Australian sevens talent Damita Betham inking a three-year deal. Kiwi Fern Amelia Pasikala also joins from the Raiders. 

The Dragons have made a major signings coup, luring representative star Emma Verran back to the club. 

The fullback made her NRLW debut for St George Illawarra in 2021 before leaving for Cronulla in 2023. 

She will now return to the Dragons on a three-year deal starting in 2027. Verran recently announced her pregnancy and her status for the 2026 campaign is yet to be confirmed. 

"It’s really special to be making my return to the Dragons," Verran said.

"I grew up in Wollongong; I got my first shot in the NRLW here at the club. For me, it’s just important that I’m in the best place to look after my growing family and be where I think I’ll be able to perform at my best postpartum.

"It was a big decision for me but I’m really optimistic about the direction that the club is headed. There’s so much talent here already and the conversations that I’ve had with Crossy have been really encouraging. It’s an exciting time."

Cowboys middle forward Bree Chester has extended her contract through to the end of the 2028 season.

A member of the inaugural Cowboys NRLW squad in 2023, Chester has appeared in 29 of the club's 30 games across their three seasons in the competition.

Chester averaged 36 tackles and 128 running metres per game in 2025 on her way to claiming a second straight Cowboys NRLW Player of the Year award.

“I love what we have been able to build here and I can see so much potential in the direction we are heading,” said Chester, who will make her third appearance for the Indigenous All Stars in Hamilton next week.

“Being able to stay in this space where I have seen so much growth in not only myself, but the team brings me so much excitement. 

“The connection and culture in this environment is incomparable and I can’t wait to keep evolving my game here.”

Warriors forward Felila Kia is the latest NRLW player to join French club Catalans ahead of their Challenge Cup debut.

Kia, who played one NRLW match last year after joining the Warriors from the Knights arrived in Perpignan this week to play the remainder of France's Elite 1 Feminine competition and the Challenge Cup. 

The 22-year-old second-rower joins Warriors team-mate Tyra Wetere and Eels recruit Jayde Herdegen at Catalans Goddesses, who are coached by two-times Women's Super League premiership winning mentor Lindsay Anfield.

The trio will return home in time for the 2026 NRLW season after completing their commitments to Catalans in the Challenge Cup in April.

The move follows a recent call to arms by French captain Elisa Akpa for NRLW stars to consider an off-season stint in France.

Meanwhile, the Bulldogs have signed Tamika Jones from the Western Force Super W program ahead of the 2026 season.

The 22-year-old forward was the Force's player of the year in 2025 and had been earmarked for international honours in rugby.

“Tamika has been part of the Wallaroos system for the past few years and that experience shows in her professionalism and standards,” said Bulldogs coach Brayden Wiliame.

Jillaroos, Maroons and Māori All Stars forward Shannon Mato will return to the NRLW in 2026 after signing a two-year contract with the Broncos.

Mato was part of the Broncos’ 2020 premiership winning side and returns to the Club after 27 appearances with the Gold Coast Titans, where she claimed Player of the Year honours in both 2022 and 2023.

The 27-year-old brings experience back to Red Hill, having represented Australia on 10 occasions and Queensland eight times in the State of Origin arena. She was co-captain of last year's Māori All Stars team.

Her achievements include the 2024 Nellie Doherty Medal as Women’s Origin Player of the Series, as well as Dally M Prop of the Year in both 2023 and 2024.

Mato sat out the 2025 season after welcoming the birth of her son and said returning to the Broncos felt like home.

Wallaroos star Arabella McKenzie has followed Australian team-mate Layne Morgan to the NRLW after signing a one-year deal with the Dragons.

Morgan, who played 37 Tests for the Wallaroos, will join the Eels for the next two seasons, while 26-year-old McKenzie comes to the Dragons after representing Australia on 28 occasions across a number of backline positions, including at the 2021 Women’s Rugby World Cup.

McKenzie grew up in the outback NSW town of Lightning Ridge and went to school in Mittagong, before filtering into the Wallaroos’ youth program.

Her international debut came against Japan in 2019 before she helped the Waratahs to a Super Rugby Women’s title in 2024.

"She is one of the most competent kickers of the football I have ever seen in the female game," Dragons coach Nathan Cross said.

"We are excited for her to meet the rest of the squad and staff and really hit the ground running as she takes on a new challenge.”

Morgan will also make her transition to rugby league for the upcoming season after a decorated rugby union career that saw her represent Australia in 37-consecutive Test matches. 

“Her professionalism and international experience at Rugby World Cup and Sevens level will be a positive addition to our NRLW program," Eels football manager Mark O'Neill said.

"Layne is a proven competitor with 37 consecutive Test caps (the first for a Wallaroo) and is renowned for her sharp service and strong defensive work.

"Layne understands what it takes to perform at the highest level, and we’re confident she’ll be a terrific addition to our squad.”

The Raiders have continued their roster build, signing former Knight Grace Kukutai to a two-year deal. 

The forward has played 11 games for Newcastle in the past two years after earlier playing netball and rugby union at the elite level. 

Sydney Roosters have announced the signing of cross-code convert Tatum Bird and Knights rookie Keighley Simpson ahead of the 2026 NRLW season.

Bird has signed a one-year NRLW contract, joining the Roosters from the NSW Waratahs’ Super W program. The 25-year-old brings composure, strong game management and experience from high-performance rugby environments.

Simpson has also signed with the Roosters, adding versatility and speed to the Club’s outside backs. She made her NRLW debut with the Newcastle Knights in 2025, scoring four tries across three appearances.

Prior to her transition to rugby league, Simpson played in New Zealand’s domestic women’s rugby union competition and represented New Zealand at the Under 18s World School Sevens.

Brisbane Broncos young guns Georgia Bartlett and Amanii Misa have been rewarded for their performances and work ethic across 2025, earning upgrades to the club’s Top 24 squad.

Within just six months of taking up rugby league, Bartlett signed a development contract with the Broncos in 2024 and has now secured a contract extension through to the end of the 2027 season.

Originally a touch football player, Bartlett transitioned to rugby league in 2024 with the Maroochydore Swans in the Sunshine Coast Gympie Rugby League competition. 

Later that year, she was named Player of the Series at the 47th Battalion Carnival, where she was selected to play fullback for Queensland Country.

Meanwhile, Misa’s contract has also been upgraded to the Broncos’ Top 24 squad for the 2026 season.

She played lock for Queensland in the 2025 Under 19s State of Origin and continued her representative pathway, featuring for the Australian Schoolgirls team in both 2024 and 2025.

New Zealand international Najvada George has signed a one-year deal with the Sharks for the 2026 NRLW season. 

The Kiwi Fern joins from the Cowboys, having spent 2025 in Townsville before being granted a release to move closer to her family. 

The move adds depth and experience to Cronulla's pack as they look to challenge for the NRLW premiership this season. 

The Knights have signed teenage representative hooker Tori Shipton on a two-year contract for the 2027 and 2028 NRLW seasons.  

Shipton's star continues to rise, progressing rapidly through the grades in 2025, including NSW Under 19 Origin and Australian Prime Ministers XIII Women’s representative selection.

An NRLW debut for the Dragons capping off a remarkable year for the 18-year-old.

“Tori signing is exciting for our club,” Jeffries said “She is tenacious, tough and possesses explosive speed, which fits exactly what we were looking for to complement our squad.

“Our recruitment has been strategic, including a clear lens on what our squad needs moving forward.

“Tori’s experience for an 18-year-old is very impressive, with significant upside and a large ceiling for continued growth, making her a key signing for the Newcastle Knights.”
