The Wests Tigers are pleased to confirm that Pihuka Berryman-Duff and Terina Te Tamaki have extended their stays at Concord with both players signing new one-year contracts.
A Samoan international and Māori Touch representative, Pihuka Berryman-Duff joined the Wests Tigers ahead of the 2025 NRLW season and featured in all 11 games for the Club – starting on nine occasions.
The 24-year-old brings versatility to the squad, being able to play in the halves, at hooker and lock.
Berryman-Duff was a member of the Fetu Samoa squad for the 2025 Pacific Championships, coming off the interchange bench in matches against the Kiwi Ferns and the Jillaroos.
Terina Te Tamaki signed for the Wests Tigers for the 2025 NRLW season, bringing to the Club a wealth of international experience from her nine years with New Zealand’s national Rugby Sevens program.
The 28-year-old outside back’s debut NRLW season came to a premature end when she suffered a season-ending shoulder injury during the West Tigers Round 4 clash with the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks.
NRLW Head Coach, Craig Sandercock welcomed the return of Berryman-Duff and Te Tamaki for 2026.
“Pihuka and Terina are both highly skilful and exciting athletes who will add depth and versatility to our squad, which will be invaluable across the course of an NRLW season,” Sandercock said.
Terina’s season in 2025 was unfortunately cut short but we’ve seen what she’s capable of when she’s fit and healthy, and it was fantastic to see Pihuka represent Fetu Samoa in this year’s Pacific Championships.

“I'm looking forward to having them with us in 2026 as we continue to build our squad for the season ahead,” Sandercock concluded.
Berryman-Duff and Te Tamaki join Emily Bass, Portia Bourke, Harmony Crichton, Tara Reinke and Caitlin Turnbull who have re-signed with West Tigers during the off-season. The West Tigers squad for 2026 will also feature Jillaroos captain Kezie Apps and Kiwi Ferns captain, Raecene McGregor.
The Wests Tigers will continue to make further 2026 NRLW squad announcements in the coming weeks.
