- Biography:
Hopkins returns for her third campaign as a Dragon after making her NRLW debut for the club at five-eighth in Round 4, 2022 and playing a role in the side’s charge towards the postseason.
The 22-year-old impressed playing Oztag and Rugby Sevens as a youngster before making the switch to rugby league six years ago where she has since excelled as a crafty playmaker.
Hopkins – who scored two tries in seven games off the interchange a year ago – is under contract with the club until at least the end of the 2025 NRLW season.
