Eels, Titans and Knights join NRLW as season expands to seven weeks

The majority of the matches will be played as double-headers ahead of the men’s games to maximise exposure.

Abdo said players could expect to see a significant increase in payment with the NRL set to sign 144 NRLW players in comparison to 88 last year.“We want to make sure we keep moving with things that are really strategically important to the game.”Getty The Warriors, who have taken part in the competition since its inception in 2018, have pulled out this year, but plan to be back for 2022.

Given the Warriors have been based on the Central Coast this year and last due to COVID-19, Abdo said participating in the women’s game this year would prove “too much of a train” for the club this year.The women’s game will start alongside the men’s round 23. Each team will play each other once and the top four teams will play in the semi-finals.

Seven seasons later, Younger is over – and all I feel is reliefYou know that feeling when you’re in a relationship that’s well past its use-by date? That’s exactly how the last season of Younger felt. Warning: spoilers. JennaGuillaume I binge watched the first six seasons over a month but I've been hate watching this last season. Was that the finale last night? Thank God. I couldn't bare another moment of Liza Miller's faux empathy. Or sappy Charles. Or Hilary Duff as worst cast character ever.
