The Wests Tigers are gearing up for their second season in the NRLW competition with a highly anticipated showdown against the Canberra Raiders at Campbelltown Sports Stadium this weekend.

It's set to be a Sunday afternoon clash that will have fans on the edge of their seats.

The Tigers have named three fresh faces for Sunday's game, with Harmony Crichton, Shaianne McGlone, and Natasha Penitani all making their NRLW debuts.

These up-and-comers are sure to bring some much-needed energy to the team.

Tara Reinke, a seasoned prop at 25 years old, will be making her debut for the Tigers after stints with the Raiders last season.

It's sure to be an emotional game for Reinke as she faces off against her former teammates.

In a boost for the Tigers, Botille Vette-Welsh will be starting at fullback after sitting out the trial game against the Broncos.

Her presence on the field alongside Co-captain Kezie Apps is sure to keep the opposition on their toes.

The Raiders, on the other hand, have their own debutant in utility player Sereana Naitokatoka.

This new addition to the team adds an element of unpredictability to the game and will surely keep the Tigers on their toes.

Overall, this match is shaping up to be a real nail-biter, with both teams hungry for a win.

It's sure to be a game filled with passion, determination, and some classic Rugby League action.
