The NRLW preview highlights the return of the Warriors after a five-year absence as they face the Roosters in their first game back.

The matchup marks a reunion for the two teams, who last met in the inaugural 2018 season when the Warriors upset the Roosters.

The Warriors, under coach Ronald Griffiths, have assembled a strong squad but securing a win against the experienced Roosters will be a challenging task.

The Roosters aim to start their season with a victory as they defend their title, albeit without their reigning Golden Boot player Tarryn Aiken.

However, they still have notable players, including Olivia Kernick, Jessica Sergis, Isabelle Kelly, Corban Baxter, and Keeley Davis.

In contrast, the Warriors feature 10 players making their NRLW debuts, with captain Apii Nicholls being the only member remaining from 2018.
