Team List: NRLW Round 1 v Eels

The Tigers will be on the road to kick off the season, taking on the Parramatta Eels at CommBank Stadium at 11.50am this Sunday.

Captain Kezie Apps lines up in the second row alongside new signing Shaylee Bent, with another arriving superstar in Raecene McGregor donning the #7.

The Tigers gain plenty of experience with Rikeya Horne slotting into centre in her return from pregnancy, as well as seasoned forward Holli Wheeler starting at lock having joined the Club last November.

Veteran prop Sarah Togatuki pairs up with new recruit Shaniece Monschau in the front row, whilst another fresh face in Shenai Lendill takes her place at centre.
