Super Rugby Women's squads confirmed for 2025 season
- 231
The 2025 Super Rugby Women's Squads are locked in ahead of the opening game on February 28.
The NSW Waratahs are the team to beat after their title success in 2024, however, there has been plenty of player movements in the off-season.
The Western Force has led the way for big signings, recruiting the likes of Ash Marsters, Cecilia Smith and Sera Naiqama for 2025.
“We are really excited by the squad that’s been put together by the club this year.
"Retaining the performing players from last season and recruiting the best talent in Australia in identified positions was the goal and we believe we have been able to achieve this.”
The Queensland Reds have also rejuvenated their squad, signing Wallaroos Layne Morgan and Eva Karpani.
“Joining the Reds is definitely new scenery and a good change. I’m enjoying it all,” Karpani said.
“Just meeting and connecting with new teammates and staff plus being challenged by new athletes in the same position in the squad are different ways to be out of your comfort zone."
Meanwhile, the ACT Brumbies has focused on retaining their exciting core, which includes breakout Test star Faitala Moleka, who re-signed earlier in the week.
"Re-signing at the Brumbies was definitely a no-brainer, I'm super grateful for what this club has done for me personally as an athlete, I love this place," said Moleka.
On top of this, the Brumbies are linked with Sevens heroes Demi Hayes, Tia Hinds and Bienne Terita.
The trio are amongst nine Sevens players set to be available at certain points of the season, with Charlotte Caslick, the Levi sisters, Bella Nasser and Kahli Henwood set to turn out for the Reds whilst the Waratahs have the services of Sariah Paki.
The Drua have loaded up their squad in the quest to go one better in 2025, with explosive winger Vitalina Naikore the big recruit, returning after a stint in the NRLW.
“We are honoured to present to the people of Fiji our 2025 Fijian Drua Women’s squad," head coach Ifereimi Rawaqa added.
"This is a growth year for this squad, as we continue to build depth in the squad and expose new and young players to top level competition. This is especially important for the national squad in a Rugby World Cup year.”
