The Sydney Roosters are proud to announce the Round 1 NRLW line-up, to take on the Brisbane Broncos at Sunshine Coast Stadium on Saturday evening.

Led by Captain Isabelle Kelly and Vice-Captain Corban Baxter, the Tricolours will make history alongside the fellow NRLW Foundation Club as they take the Women’s game to the Sunshine Coast for the first time.

The Roosters' Round 1 line-up features a host of International representatives, Central Coast products and returning campaigners; with Tarryn Aiken, Millie Boyle, Keeley Davis and Amber Hall named to make their Club debuts.

Baxter (pregnancy) and Brydie Parker (knee) will make their returns at fullback and on the wing, after spending the 2022 season on the sidelines. Joining the duo in the backline is winger Jayme Fressard and Jillaroos centre pairing Isabelle Kelly and Jessica Sergis.
