Dragons Captain Anderson Departs Club Amidst Major Overhaul
25 Sep
Summary
- Dragons captain Brooke Anderson has left the club, contracted until 2027.
- Teagan Berry joins the Cronulla Sharks on a two-year contract.
- The Dragons face significant roster changes for the upcoming season.
St George Illawarra Dragons captain Brooke Anderson has decided to leave the club, a significant blow as she is under contract until the end of the 2027 season. Anderson's departure follows that of former co-captain Zali Hopkins and Origin representative Teagan Berry, signaling a major roster reshuffling for the Dragons.
Anderson, a Brighton Seagulls junior, arrived at the Dragons this year and was named captain for 2026. She previously played for the Parramatta Eels and Cronulla Sharks. As a three-time international for the New Zealand Kiwi Ferns and a New South Wales Blues representative, Anderson is expected to be a highly sought-after player in the NRLW market.
Meanwhile, the Cronulla Sharks have secured Teagan Berry on a two-year contract, keeping her until the end of 2028. Berry, who made her State of Origin debut for the New South Wales Blues this year, is third on the NRLW's all-time try scorers list. Sharks coach Tony Herman expressed excitement about Berry's speed and try-scoring ability, anticipating her to be a valuable asset.
