The 2025 NRLW season is gearing up to be significant for the Dragons, led by new head coach Nathan Cross.

With a solid 17-year coaching background, including roles with the Queensland Women's Origin and the Under 19s Men's Origin teams, Cross is eager to elevate the team's performance.

The Dragons' schedule highlights crucial matchups early in the season, starting with a Round 2 clash against the reigning premiers, the Roosters.

This game is part of the club's opening double-header at Kogarah.

Following this, the team will make history with its inaugural match against the Bulldogs at Accor Stadium, before facing the Broncos in Round 4.

A key highlight for the NRLW season is the first Magic Round, which will see the Dragons compete against the Eels at Newcastle's McDonald Jones Stadium.

The club will also host a series of double-headers in quick succession, welcoming the Sharks, Warriors, and Cowboys within a month.

With the team's aspirations for a stronger season, all eyes will be on Coach Cross and how the squad performs in the upcoming matches.
