With the official confirmation of the entry of a Papua New Guinea-based team into the Telstra NRL Premiership from 2028, sights are now set on seeing a women's team join the NRLW.

The article from NRL.com discusses the growing interest and development of women's rugby league in Papua New Guinea (PNG), with a focus on the potential establishment of a PNG NRLW team. It highlights the efforts of the PNG Rugby Football League (PNGRFL) to nurture female talent, noting the significant increase in female participation in the sport. The article mentions the success of the PNG Orchids, the national women's team, and how their achievements are inspiring more girls to take up rugby league. Key points include the PNGRFL's strategic plan to develop pathways for women, the cultural shift towards accepting and supporting women in sports traditionally dominated by men, and the ambition to have a PNG team in the NRLW competition.
