The NRLW Round 1 features debutantes Tapsell, Tauaneai, Maynard-Perrin, and Ingram for the Red V.
The NRLW Round 1 matchup against the Canberra Raiders is set, with Head Coach Nathan Cross confirming his squad for the game at GIO Stadium.
This season opener holds special significance as it represents a crucial milestone for the Shellharbour Stingrays junior, who is now the sixth member of Illawarra's 2024 Tarsha Gale Cup premiership team to debut for the Red V.
In this match, front-rowers Pia Tapsell and Trinity Tauaneai are poised to make their NRLW debuts, with Tapsell starting and Tauaneai on the bench.
Additionally, Nita Maynard-Perrin and Ahlivia Ingram will each make club debuts from the bench.
