Good signing for Warriors. Apii probably enjoying her best season of NRLW in 2024. Still got the step and speed off the mark. Still brave and committed.

Storm and Manly are the ones that seem to be ramping up their programs.

Penrith are as well as they are entering a team in the 2025 Harvey Norman NSW Women's Premiership.

Manly/Souths/Penrith will all have teams in the Lisa Fiaola and Tarsha Gale cups and HNNWP and will be pressing for inclusion when the next expansion occurs.

Storm have only just started their Womens development program - have no teams entered in any of the above comps so are a few years away from where the above clubs are at.
