Wests Tigers are proud to announce that three of the club's most exciting young female Pathways talents will remain at Wests Tigers, with Saige Tautalafua, Kalani Godinet and Khiarna Munro officially signing new contracts at the Zurich Centre last week.
All three players are graduates of the club’s Lisa Fiaola Cup squad that won through to a Preliminary Final appearance this year, and each brings unique skills and qualities that highlight the depth of talent coming through Wests Tigers’ female Pathways.
Saige Tautalafua
A skilful and hard-hitting 17-year-old second-rower, Saige enjoyed an outstanding year in the Lisa Fiaola Cup before being selected for NSW City Under 17's.
Tautalafua brings excellent athleticism and game sense to her football and has already stepped up into the Harvey Norman NSW Women’s Premiership squad, where she continues to develop her game in the senior women’s program.
Kalani Godinet
Kalani is a powerful 16-year-old forward from the East Campbelltown Eagles, equally capable in the middle or on the edge.
Known for her aggressive defence and leg speed, Kalani impressed throughout the junior representative season.
She also earned selection for NSWCHS in 2025, underlining her potential.
I’m excited to sign with Wests Tigers because I played all my junior footy here. I’m really grateful for the opportunity and looking forward to the journey ahead.
Kalani Godinet
Khiarna Munro
A dynamic 16-year-old back from the Liverpool Catholic Club Raiders, Khiarna shone at fullback in the Lisa Fiaola Cup and has also represented NSWCHS in 2025.
With a background in touch football, she brings agility, speed, and natural attacking instinct to her game.
Khiarna’s explosive style makes her one to watch as she continues her journey through the Wests Tigers Pathways system.
Wests Tigers Women's Pathways Coordinator Mitchell Sargent is delighted to secure the trio's future at the club.
"We're thrilled to welcome Saige, Kalani and Khiarna into our club and support their development through the Wests Tigers Pathways program," said Sargent.
"Our focus remains on nurturing not only their football talent but also their personal growth as they aspire to become future NRLW Wests Tigers players.
"These young athletes represent the bright future of our club, and we look forward to watching their journeys unfold."
