Last updated:

Roosters: No major surprises for the Tricolours with Mel Howard edging Zahara Temara and Simone Smith for the No.7 jersey alongside Kirra Dibb. Six players including Corban McGregor, who missed last season with a shoulder injury, are listed to make their NRLW debut. Simone Smith and Quincy Dodd were omitted on Friday. 

Warriors: A huge blow for the New Zealand club with Honey Hireme missing due to family reasons. The Warriors will blood nine rookies for the clash with last year’s regulars Tanika-Jazz Noble-Bell and Onjeurlina Leiataua listed in the reserves. Amber Kani and Tyler Reid were the two players left out 24 hours before kick-off.
