2023 NRLW Player Movements
We track all the player movements - who's in, who's out, and how the four new teams are tracking with signings ahead of the expanded 2023 season.
Canberra, Cronulla, North Queensland and Wests Tigers are all new clubs in 2023, with ten teams competing across a nine-round premiership later this year.
Via the NRL, here's how the season's contract rules and season plan unfolds:
- Squads will consist of 24 NRLW contracts and four development list contracts;
- The top 24 must be contracted by 5pm Wednesday, May 24 2023;
- Clubs will be able to have one marquee player in their squad. This player will have a minimum notional inclusion in the salary cap and a set value excluded from the cap for 2023-2025;
- The NRLW season will commence on July 22 with a draw expected in early April. Pre-season training will begin on May 29;
- NRLW player contracts will be active until October 31;
- Clubs will be able to negotiate with players off contract from November 1 in the final year of the contract;
- The winning NRLW team will receive a prizemoney share of $350,000.
