Brydie Parker will start at fullback alongside Leianne Tufuga, Jess Sergis and Isabelle Kelly, with Claire Reed named to make her much-anticipated NRLW debut on the wing.

Jocelyn Kelleher has been named at five-eighth alongside Raecene McGregor, who will make her debut in the starting side for the Roosters at halfback.
