Harden headlines list of 13 departing NRLW players

Thirteen members of the North Queensland Toyota Cowboys NRLW squad will be farewelled at the club’s Presentation Night at the Townsville Entertainment & Convention Centre this evening.

The list includes Tallisha Harden, Ella Cronin, Jennifer Kimber, Nadia Windleborn, Tiana Raftstrand-Smith, Ebony Raftstrand-Smith, Sian Williams, Rosie Kelly, Tallara Bamblett, Haylee Hifo, Lily Dick, Emily Veivers and Lyrech Mara.

Inaugural co-captain Tallisha Harden announced her retirement from rugby league prior to the club’s final home game. Harden appeared in 38 games for the Cowboys, the fourth-most in club history.

Fellow inaugural Cowboys NRLW squad members, the Raftstrand-Smith sisters depart North Queensland having made their mark on the club. Tiana registered 27 appearances for the Cowboys and scored eight tries, while Ebony appeared in three games before her 2026 season was cut short by an ACL injury.

Windleborn (5), Williams (3), Kelly (18), Bamblett (6), Hifo (2), Dick (12), Veivers (2) and Mara (1) all appeared at NRLW level in Cowboys colours, while Cronin and Kimber are yet to make their top-grade debuts.
