The Titans travel over the ditch to take on the Warriors for the first ever time.

The Warriors have had a rough start to their 2025 season, having started the year on a loss to the Roosters, before going on to beat the Eels for their first home game, and then losing to the Knights last week 36-20. The NZ side currently sit one better than the Titans, where they are respectively in ninth and tenth place on the ladder. Due to injury Rob Griffiths has been forced to make a few changes to the side. With Emily Curtain out with a hip injury, Lydia Turua-Quedley will start as halfback after starting from the bench for the first three rounds and Avery-Rose Carmont will make her NRLW debut from the bench. Makayla Eli also makes her NRLW debut in jersey number 17, joining Lavinia Kitai and Maarire Puketapu on the bench. 

Also having a tough start to the season, the Titans lost their two opening matches to QLD rivals: the Cowboys and Broncos. The side managed to bounce back though and defeat the Tigers in Round 3 with a final score of 24-12.  Having missed last week's game due to a suspension for a dangerous contact charge, Georgia Hale returns to the side to take on her former side, for the only personnel change made by Karyn Murphy. To allow for Hale to slot back into the side as lock, Sienna Lofipo shifts to prop and Takoda Thompson moves back to the bench. 

Who to watch: Both decorated and experienced players, the battle of the fullbacks will be an intriguing one to watch.  Returning home to the Warriors this season after spending time at the Titans and Raiders, Apii Nicholls is an experienced player, and was the first player to resign for the Warriors after they announced their return to the competition. This season, Nicholls has so far had three try assists and nine tackle breaks.

Previously playing for the Broncos and Dragons before joining the Titans in 2023, Jaime Chapman has made 33 appearances and scored 20 tries. Missing the Round 2 clash against the Broncos, Chapman has scored one try for her two games so far, along with five tackle breaks. 

My tip:I think it will be a close game, with both sides still trying to find their feet. Titans by 4.

The undefeated champions take on the exciting new kids on the block on Saturday afternoon as the Sydney Roosters take on the Canterbury Bulldogs at Allianz Stadium.

Coming into round four as the only undefeated team, the Sydney Roosters had an inconsistent performance in their 30-26 win over the Brisbane Broncos last week in Brisbane. The Roosters were dominant in the first half especially the first ten minutes when they were able to open up an 18-0 lead before leading 24-6 at the break. The second half the Broncos came back and in the end it was goal kicking that saw the Roosters survive. No changes have been made to the Roosters team from last week with coach John Strange showing faith in his side.

Just ten seconds were left on the clock when the Canterbury Bulldogs conceded the match-winning try that gave the Blue & Whites their first NRLW loss when they went down 18-14 to the St George Illawarra Dragons at Accor Stadium. The Bulldogs went down 10-0 early but came back to level the scores at 10-10. The sides were level for most of the second half but a rushed field goal attempt from Tayla Preston that missed gave the Dragons a seven tackle set and they took advantage of field position to score. The Bulldogs bring back Angelina Teakaraanga-Katoa straight into the side after missing last week through suspension as well as Moana Courtenay who missed last week with a groin injury. The changes see Hope Millard dropping back to the bench with Paea Uilou going to the reserves

Who to watch: Roosters captain Isabelle Kelly has been their best player this season and will need a big impact here. The Roosters will want Kelly at her best to get through the Bulldogs who have shown in their three games that they won't meekly surrender like some other teams and Kelly's numbers will be key for the winning streak to continue.

Returning from injury this season, Canterbury fullback Andie Robinson has started the season with a bang for her new side. The Bulldogs speedster is a danger and her running metres have been over 150m in each of the three games and has had 12 tackle breaks in the three games. The Roosters will need to keep Robinson quiet if they are to take victory.

My tip:It's hard to go past the Roosters; The Bulldogs aren't going to be easybeats though there is just an extra level of class for the tricolours that should get them home. Roosters by 12.

NRLW returns to Townsville as two sides with very differing fortunes in 2025 come to clash as the North Queensland Cowboys take on the Canberra Raiders art Queensland Country Bank Stadium.

The Cowboys have had a mixed start to their NRLW season with two wins from their three games so far this season with wins over the Titans and Sharks sandwiching a heavy loss to the Knights in Round two. Last week, the Cowboys were in control for most of their 16-14 win though despite leading 12-4 at halftime, the North Queenslanders had to come from behind to snatch the victory and to survive a last-minute attacking opportunity from the Sharks. Cowboys are boosted by the return of Jakiya Whitfield at fullback after missing last week's win over Cronulla. The changes see Krystal Blackwell move back to the wing and Ana Malupo on the bench. The North Queenslanders have named Kirra Dibb in the reserves after being a late withdrawal last week and Tiana Raftstrand-Smith also in the reserves for a potential return from suspension.

For all the wrong reasons in 2025, the Canberra Raiders have left people stunned as unlike their men's side, the Canberra NRLW team sits at the bottom of the ladder having been heavily beaten in all three games this season. Coming off the back of a 50-point loss the week before, things slightly improved for Canberra losing 46-12 to the Eels. Nothing went right for the Raiders as defence was out the window yet again and inexperience with odd plays plus injury to Zahara Temara hurt the green machine out there. Despite injury concerns, Zahara Temara is named in the side which welcomes back Emma Barnes and Kerehitina Matua who come onto the bench. Mackenzie Wiki comes onto the wing in place of Isabella Waterman.

Who to watch: For the hosts, eyes go to their hooker Emma Manzelmann who has been a star for the Cowboys since coming into the NRLW. The Cowboys captain as named this week has been rock solid in defence and her play out of dummy-half will be key for the Cowboys.

Canberra halfback Zahara Temara has been clearly playing through an injury and it's shown with the spark that the Raiders number 7 brings almost not there this season. The experience she brings would be a big loss but her performances have been poor and if the Raiders want to turn around the season Temara has to stand up tonight otherwise the season that is already hanging by a thread is a write-off.

My tip: The Cowboys should have an easy win at home. Their performance in Round 1 against the Titans and then last week against the Sharks should have them primed. The Raiders need a monumental turn-around and in Rugby League that can happen but from how they've played it's hard to see it coming in the hostile territory of Townsville. Cowboys by 16.

This Sunday's Round 4 clash between the Parramatta Eels and Newcastle Knights promises to be one of the most anticipated fixtures of the NRLW season to date.

With both teams sitting in the top four and coming off convincing wins, this shapes as a potential finals preview. The Knights have dominated the head-to-head record between the two sides, winning four of their five previous encounters. However, 2025 has brought a renewed confidence to Parramatta, and with both teams evenly matched on key stats, fans can expect an intense, physical battle in Western Sydney.

Parramatta bounced back from a scoreless outing in Round 2 against the Warriors with an emphatic 46-12 demolition of the Raiders in Canberra. The Eels ran in eight tries, with Rory Owen bagging a double and Mahalia Murphy leading from the front in the back row. Coach Ryan Walker has stuck solid with the same 17 this week, rewarding consistency and cohesion. Boss Kapua remains sidelined, while Abbi Church retains the fullback role, combining well with speedsters Martha Mataele and Zali Fay on the flanks.

Newcastle, meanwhile, continued their climb up the ladder with a commanding 36-20 win over the Warriors at home. The Knights started fast, with Kayla Romaniuk scoring inside the first 10 minutes and debutant Tess Staines marking her arrival with a powerful try in the corner. Their forwards laid a strong platform, while the halves pairing of Jesse Southwell and Georgia Roche continues to gel nicely. With no changes to the side this week, coach Ronald Griffiths has plenty to be pleased about heading into this top-four showdown.

Who to watch: Rory Owen looms as a genuine strike weapon after her two-try performance for Parramatta last week. If she can find space on the edge again, Parramatta will be hard to contain. Mahalia Murphy also deserves mention for her leadership and work rate on both sides of the ball.

Jesse Southwell will once again be central to Newcastle's attack. Her ability to control the tempo and unleash her outside backs could be the difference. Keep an eye on Tess Staines, whose recent form in both grades suggests she could quickly become a fan favourite.

My tip: This is a tough one to call. Newcastle have the edge historically and are in strong form, but the Eels showed just how dangerous they can be when it all clicks. With home ground advantage and momentum on their side, I'm tipping a tight one. Parramatta by 6.

The Broncos travel down south to Wollongong, to take on the Dragons. 

The Dragons season got off to a flying start, beating the Raiders 36-14, but then they struggled against the reigning premiers, the Roosters in Round 2, before bouncing back to just beat the Bulldogs in Round 3, 18-14. The Saints will be looking to secure their first back-to-back win of the season.  Coach Nathan Cross makes a few changes to his side. After suffering a knee injury, Charlotte Basham returns to the side which forces Shenai Lendill to the bench and Bronte Wilson to reserves. Nita Maynard-Perrin and Pia Tapsell also rervert back to the bench, with Zali Hopkins and Pia Tapsell returning as starting hooker and prop respectively. 

Having gone two from two and winning both QLD derbies the Broncos were off to a great start to the season sitting top of the table, but then they couldn't quite get the job done against the Roosters last week, losing by four points in a constant back and forth, close battle.  Brianna Clark returns to the side as starting prop after suffering an ankle injury, which means Chelsea Lenarduzzi returns to the bench. Lauren Dam also takes Tara McGrath-West's place in the starting side after being ruled out with a foot injury. Skyla Adams also joins the squad for her first game of the season from the bench. 

Who to watch: Both fullbacks will be pivotal to their teams' success in attack and will be the secret to getting another win on the board. 

Currently leading the NRLW for most tries scored, Teagan Berry has been a core member of the side's spine, having played for the Dragons since 2020. Overall, Berry has scored 31 tries in 35 games, and has already scored two tries this year along with making two try assists and five line breaks. 

Sitting just behind Berry, Tamika Upton has scored 30 tries in 40 games across her time at the Broncos and Knights. Having re-joined the Broncos in 2025, she is the key to their attack and is the electric energy they have been missing. Upton scored a double in both Round 2 and 3 this season, along with four try assists and six line breaks. 

My tip: Brisbane will be looking to strike again, especially after having just missed out on a win against the Roosters. Broncos by 10.

The final game of Round 4 sees the Cronulla Sharks host the Wests Tigers in a clash between two teams desperate to find consistency in the 2025 NRLW season.

While the Sharks have shown flashes of brilliance, and the Tigers continue to battle for their first win of the year, it's the visitors who remarkably boast a 2-0 head-to-head record over their hosts. The most recent meeting came in the final round of 2024, where the Tigers delivered a strong performance to claim their second win of the year—something they'll be hoping to repeat on Sunday.

Cronulla will be ruing their missed opportunity against the Cowboys last week, falling 16-14 in a game they could have pinched at the death. Despite a slow, error-prone first half that saw them down 12-4 at the break, they fought back through wingers Georgia Ravics and Cassie Staples but were ultimately let down by their execution and goal-kicking. Craig Palmer has made a couple of key changes heading into this clash. Anessa Biddle returns from suspension to take her spot in the centres, pushing Grace-Lee Weekes to the bench, while Manilita Takapautolo earns a start in the front row with Jacinta Carter sidelined due to concussion protocols.

For the Tigers, it's been a frustrating campaign so far, going down in their third consecutive loss—this time to the Titans at Leichhardt Oval. Coach Brett Kimmorley has swung the axe in an attempt to spark his side into action. Faythe Manera retains her spot in the starting side and will now steer the team from five-eighth, partnering Losana Lutu in a fresh-look halves pairing. Pihuka Berryman-Duff returns to the starting hooker role, while Jessikah Reeves has been named on the bench after clearing HIA protocols. Chelsea Savill remains an outside chance to return, named in the extended squad.

Who to watch: For the Sharks, Cassie Staples continues to be a strike weapon out wide. Her try last weekend showcased her finishing ability, and with Anessa Biddle returning to the centres, Cronulla's left edge could cause serious problems for the Tigers. For the Tigers, Losana Lutu will be key. With a new halves partner and added responsibility, her kicking game and leadership will be crucial to unlocking a stubborn Sharks defence. Keep an eye on Pihuka Berryman-Duff too—her spark out of dummy half could shift the momentum.

My tip: While the Sharks are tipped to win and have home ground advantage, the Tigers have shown in the past that they know how to trouble this Cronulla outfit. With a reshuffled spine and history on their side, this could be the Tigers' week to break through. Tigers by 4.
