Wests Tigers: A few injuries to the Wests Tigers side sees some new faces come into the squad for the match against the Dragons. Montana Clifford did not return from her HIA last week, with debutante Claudia Brown to come into the second row, while Shaianne McGlone also picked up a suspected knee injury. Tiana-Lee Thorne is also out of the side this week with a finger injury, with Claudia Nielsen coming onto the wing for her NRLW debut, while a return to the centres from Leianne Tufuga moves Pauline Piliae-Rasabale to the bench. Jessica Kennedy is the new 18th player.

Dragons: A big in for the Dragons this week with the return of Tyla King to the line-up. Slotting straight back into the five-eighth role to pair with Raecene McGregor, her return moves Kasey Reh to hooker and Sophie Clancy to 18th player. In a shuffle of the forwards, Madison Mulhall has been named to start at prop, with Jamilee Bright to come off the bench.

Raiders: A big reshuffle for the Raiders this week with some big inclusions. Co-captain Simaima Taufa returns at lock, moving Chante Temara back to hooker and Emma Barnes to the bench. Hollie-Mae Dodd also returns from suspension into the second row. Mackenzie Wiki has been named for her return at centre. Kerehitina Matua will sit out the next few weeks with suspension, with the new bench for this match seeing Felice Quinlan move from the starting side, with Tatiana Finau moving back into the reserves and Relna Wuruki-Hosea the new 18th player.

Eels: Coach Steve Georgallis has named an unchanged side for this week's match against the Raiders in a reward for his side's immense effort against the Titans last week. Powerful prop Elsie Albert played arguably her best game of the season in a two-try effort, while young centre Rory Owen produced a game-turning moment to help the Eels on their way to their 24-14 win.
