The 2025 NRL Women's season was the eighth professional season of the NRL Women's Premiership. The number of teams (twelve) was an increase on the 2024 season due to the readmission of the New Zealand Warriors and the introduction of the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs. The expansion in 2025 was confirmed by the NRL in March 2024.[1] The start date and duration of the season was confirmed by the NRL with the release of the draw on 21 November 2024.[2]
Teams
The ten teams that participated in the 2024 season returned for the 2025 season with the addition of the New Zealand Warriors, who returned after a four-season hiatus, and new entrant Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs.
Notes:
- In the Captain(s) column
- The number next to the name indicates the number of games played as captain
- The word and indicates joint captains. Of the five clubs that employed joint captains only one, the Broncos, had both appear in every match.
- The word also indicates the player deputised as captain when the regular captain missed one or more matches.
- New head coach appointments were
- Brayden Williame (Bulldogs) — Announced in early April 2025.[6] This followed the resignation in January 2025 of original appointee Blake Cavellero.[15]
- Ronald Griffiths (Warriors) — Announced in early July 2024.[9]
- Nathan Cross (Dragons) — Announced in late October 2024.[12]
- Brett Kimmorley (Wests Tigers) elected not to apply for an extension to his contract.[16]
Scheduling
The start, duration, and conclusion of the 2025 season was influenced by several factors.
- A seven-week preparation period.[17]
- Two weeks of leave.
- A change to the format of the final series from four teams over two weeks to six teams over three weeks. Winners of 3rd place versus 6th place and 4th place versus 5th place in Week 1 meet 1st place and 2nd place in Week 2 semi-finals. Winners of the semi-finals meet in the Grand Final in Week 3.[2]
- Decision on the length of the regular season to use the minimum of eleven rounds required for the twelve teams to play each of their opponents once.
- A three-match Women's State of Origin series on 1 May (in Brisbane), 15 May (in Sydney), and 29 May (in Newcastle) 2025. All three matches are to be played on Thursday nights.[18]
- The 1st match was brought forward from 16 May (2024) to 1 May (2025). The 1st match again preceded Magic Round.
- Matches were two weeks apart in 2025, whereas they were three weeks apart in 2024.
Both the New South Wales and Queensland State premiership competitions ran in parallel with the 2025 NRLW season. [19] This was a scheduling change for Queensland, which in 2024 ran from early March to late May.
Trial matches
On 5 June 2025, the NRL announced a trial match between the Brisbane Broncos and Papua New Guinea Orchids.[20] On 10 June, the Newcastle Knights announced their team for a trial match on the following Sunday.[21] The Gold Coast Titans announced a trail match against the North Queensland Cowboys, with the teams playing for the Brittany Breayley-Nati–Jenni-Sue Hoepper Shield as they did in 2024.[22] On 16 June 2025, the Cronulla Sharks announced a trail for the following Sunday.[23] On 17 June 2025, the Wests Tigers announced a trail and their team for the following Sunday.[24] On the same day, the Canterbury Bulldogs announced a trail and their team for the following Saturday evening.[25]
