NRLW NRLW and Women's Rugby League General Discussion 2024

Super Freak said:
The Knights have certainly stamped themselves as a threat to the Roosters winning the trophy the past couple of weeks.

It's going to be them two in the GF for sure.

And of course being one and two (or possibly three) they’re on opposite sides of the preliminaries so it’s set up for them to meet

If Brisbane happen to make it though, I know who I’d rather play

(not the Roosters)

Yep, and Upton for the Knights.

It’s kinda funny though that you have two of the best players in the game from Rocky and the GC and neither play for the Cows and Titans

I feel anything Central Queensland has more of an affinity to NQ than SEQ, just in terms of lifestyle or culturally

I guess Teitzel is a more damning example, but it’s a case of when, not if with her
 
PM XIII women’s game on vs PNG at the moment

Australia lead 18-0 at the half. team features the likes of Teagan Berry, Bo Vette-Welsh, Tallisha Harden, Rachel Pearson, China Polata and Tiana Rafstrand-Smith

We do have a Broncos rep in Keisha-Leigh Coolwell playing at centre
 
Why isn’t Coolwell playing in our squad? Development only? That was a nice try she scored.

Yeah development and we have had enough fit backs every game with Dam being the first drop but Keisha does get named in the extended squad before dropping out every week.

Played in the trial against the Knights before the season too

(taken from NRL.com - don't know why they've neglected putting clubs for PNG, CI and Fiji squads - if I can find the energy I'll update myself)
 
A few post-season signing announcements

Mythabelle Kelly re-signs at the Roosters for a further 3 seasons until the end of 2026

Recent Jillaroo Jakiya Whitfield (Wests Tigers) has moved to the Cowboys from next year for 3 years

Raecene McGregor, Teagan Berry, Jamilee Bright, Angela Teakaraanga-Katoa, Tara McGrath-West Ella Koster, Bobbi Law, Alexis Tauaneai re-sign at the Dragons until 2025, and 2026 for Tauaneai

Niall Williams-Guthrie will fulfil the second year of her contract after the Titans took a wait-and-see approach to how she handled the first year
 
Titans re-sign Shannon Mato until the end of 2027
 
Ali B, Ciesiolka, Jessikah Reeves (Cows) and Tara Reinke (Raiders) have signed for the new Clydesdales BMD side for next season.

I wonder if Ferguson will follow suit, despite being made captain at Norths before their defection.

Socials are sometimes a good indicator when it comes to footy, so there’s likely to be a few more Broncos and other names heading there if that’s the case
 
Ferguson is staying at Norths fyi

More extensions happening - Dibb is staying at the Cows until end of 2026, Harden for 2024, Sergis is extending until end of 2027 (lol) and unfortunately Aiken is staying until the end of 2025. I don't think we see her back at Brisbane anytime soon

Dragons sign a few players to end of 2025 including former Bronco Sara Sautia.

I don't think we'll see as much on the Broncos front as we have almost all players signed for 2024 and our marquee level players like Ali, Ciesiolka, Brill, Robbo etc are signed until end of 25. I reckon at least 90% of the squad will remain the same, perhaps even more
 
Having a look over the BMD match centres on QRL.com and they are sorely lacking attention and accuracy

Half the players don’t have pictures, or they are given the same picture as another player like they used Ferguson’s picture for both her and for Jaime-Lee Lewis. Not exactly unknown players either of them

There was also something in the Wynnum v Capras game where Lilly Green was sin binned in the 56th minute, was part of a substitution 5 seconds later and then subbed back on for Robbo a minute later

I mean come on get your shit together

It's the pen pics beside their name that are wrong- you click on Lewis and the photo is right on her profile.
