Raiders: No changes to the side that went toe-to-toe with 2025 minor premiers the Roosters last week, with only an unfortunate off day with the boot seeing them go down 24-18. Both teams scored four tries, but Zahara Temara was unable to convert any, only landing a penalty goal. Forward Ellie Brander, who made her NRLW debut last week, has retained her place on the bench. Hollie-Mae Dodd has been named on the extended bench as she returns from concussion.

Sharks: An unchanged line up for the Sharks as they hunt their first win of the 2026 season. Skipper Tiana Penitani-Gray remains sidelined with a quad injury, with rugby union convert Madison Higgins-Ashby, who stepped up last week to start, remaining in the centres.

Bulldogs: The Bulldogs have named an unchanged line-up to face the Dragons, following their victory against Sharks last week. Winger Simina Lokotui had a break-out game, crossing for a hat-trick. Waimarie Martin is the new replacement player named in 18.

Dragons: The return of Jayme Millard from a pec injury has seen coach Nathan Cross reshuffle his backline. Millard will start on the wing, shifting Tyra Ekepati to centre. Tahlia O'Brien reverts back to the bench, moving Nita Maynard-Perrin to 18th player. Zali Hopkins, who sat out last week's 38-0 loss to the Knights with a head knock, has been listed in the reserves.

Eels: A big inclusion for the Eels, with representative forward Keilee Joseph set to play her first game for her new club. A premiership-winner with the Broncos last season, Joseph has been sidelined with a knee injury and will start at lock, moving Khyliah Gray back to the bench. Rosemarie Beckett will start at five-eighth in place of the suspended Cassey Tohi-Hiku, with Taneka Todhunter named to start at hooker, shifting Rueben Cherrington to the bench. Boss Kapua returns from suspension via the interchange in place of Rysh'e Fa'amausili, who will miss the game following a head knock.

Warriors: Payton Takimoana makes an early return from a shoulder injury, coming on to the wing for Lavinia Tauhalaliku, who is unavailable this week. Mya Hill-Moana will start at prop, with Kaiyah Atai moving into the lock position. Annetta Nuuausala moves to the bench, shifting Ashlee Matapo into the 18th player role, with Metanoia Fetalaiga the other starting prop. Two of the club's star off-season recruits Mele Hufanga and Gayle Broughton have been named in the reserves as they look to return from injury.

Knights: The Knights were dealt a devasting injury blow last week, with captain and representative second rower Yasmin Meakes ruled out for the season with a ruptured ACL. Jule Kirkpatrick comes from the bench to start in the second row, with Grace Giampino joining the interchange bench. Kayla Romaniuk will lead the side as captain for the remainder of the season.

Wests Tigers: No changes to Craig Sandercock's line-up, with his side to face off against another of the 2025 grand finalists this weekend. Centre Namoe Gesa, who made her NRLW debut in Round 1 this year, impressed despite their loss to the Broncos last week, making 125 metres at the home of her former club Brisbane Tigers.

Roosters: Some powerful inclusions on the bench for the Roosters, with Aliyah Nasio returning from suspension and Amber Hall also named for her first game of the season. Macie Carlile drops from the bench after hurting her knee, with Mia Wood reverting to replacement player duties.
