Sharks: Captain Tiana Penitani Gray has overcome a knee injury and lines up for career game No.49 in the centres, with Rhiannon Byers moving to the bench. A milestone for prop Ellie Johnston as she reaches 50 NRLW games, six years after debuting at the Dragons as a teenager.

Broncos: Winger Kerri Johnson has scored six tries her last four NRLW games and will look to continue that run as part of an unchanged Broncos line-up that heads to Cronulla on the back of a 50-4 thumping of the Cowboys. Debutants Caitlin Urwin, Rhemy Hinckesman and Harlem Walker all bagged tries in the big win.

Cowboys: Dual international Haylee Hifo makes her NRLW debut on the wing in place of Sian Williams, who has entered the NRL’s concussion protocol. Hifo, 23, has represented Tonga in rugby league and rugby union. Experienced former Wallaroo Ashley Marsters is set to make her NRLW debut, after being named on the bench in the No.17 jersey, in place of Tafao Asaua who has been listed in the reserves. The Cowboys have played Wests Tigers three times for three victories.

Wests Tigers: No changes for last year's wooden spooners after an impressive first-up win over the Eels. Star recruit Raecene McGregor will play her 50th career game as the Tigers chase back-to-back wins for the first time since Round 8-9 in 2024.

Bulldogs: Just the one change from last week with Kiwi Ferns representative Ashleigh Quinlan taking over in the five-eighth role from Shaquaylah Mahakitau-Monschau. After being 18th player last week, Evelyn Roberts has been named there again as she chases an NRLW debut while reserves Waimarie Martin and Ambryn Murphy-Haua are also yet to debut at this level.

Titans: Knee injuries to fullback Destiny Mino-Sinapati and Jessika Elliston have brought Lily Patston and Fanua Rimoni into the side, with Rimoni making her NRLW debut. Patston debuted last season and looked good in her four games before a syndesmosis injury ended her campaign. After playing seven games in her debut season for the Dragons in 2025, young gun Indie Bostock makes her first appearance for the Titans coming off the bench.

Raiders: Coach Darrin Borthwick goes with an unchanged line-up after a first-up win over the Dragons. Krystal Blackwell made her first appearance as a five-eighth last week and will once again partner co-captain Zahara Temara in the halves for the Green Machine, who have won only one of their last 11 games at GIO Stadium.

Warriors: Gun winger Stacey Waaka will make her club debut in her return to the NRLW as she takes over from Payton Takimoana (shoulder). With prop Mya Hill-Moana suspended for one game for a hip drop tackle, Tonga international Metanoia Fotu-Moala moves into the starting front row. Ivana Lauitiiti returns on the bench having served a suspension incurred during the Kiwi Ferns’ Pacific Championships final loss to the Jillaroos last November.

Dragons: Coach Nathan Cross has shuffled his line-up following last week's loss to the Raiders, with skipper Brooke Anderson shifting from lock to hooker in place of Nita Maynard-Perrin (head knock). Hannah Southwell starts in No.13 while Ella Koster moves to start in the second row after coming from the bench last week. Veteran front-rower Amelia Huakau is in line for a club debut off the bench.

Eels: Young gun second-rower Ryvrr-Lee Alo has been named to start in place of Boss Kapua, who has been suspended for two matches for a careless high tackle. Khyliah Gray fills the vacant bench spot. Winger Martha Mataele has scored six tries in her last four NRLW games.
