It's officially time for the National Rugby League Women to take over the McDonald Jones Stadium in Newcastle in the Magic Weekend in Round 5.
Through the opening four round of the 2025 NRLW home-and-away season, the Sydney Roosters, the defending major premiers, have taken full charge as they have taken four wins out of four, ahead of the 2024 minor premiers, the Brisbane Broncos, who boast the league's best offensive and defensive record.
On the other end of the NRLW ladder sit the Wests Tigers and the Canberra Raiders, who are the only two teams yet to win their first game this season. The Raiders are by far the worst team so far as they have only scored just 32 points but conceded 164.
