Headed out to this tonight, what a fantastic group of footballers.

Shame they couldn't hang on today. Zero composure in that second half - was almost as bad as watching the boys play.
I believe Jakiya Whitfeld has signed a 3 year deal with the Cowboys. Massive loss for our girls.

Sadly that is correct.

a bit of a loss that is a shame
A massive loss. Typical Wests Tigers though. If true to form, they’ll probably replace her with an aging slowing reject from another club on a 5 year contract.a bit of a loss that is a shame
I read a comment elsewhere that Jakiya was offered fullback money, and we already have Vette-Welsh.
This is a very poor excuse if true and extremely short-sighted.
Jakiya is already an amazing player, super marketable 'Jakiya the Flyer!' and the type of player that brings crowds to their feet and can put bums on seats. These types of players are even rarer than fullbacks!! How many years now have we been bemoaning the fact that we had the likes of Koroibete and JAC and allowed them to slip through our net.
In the context of the NRLW Jakiya can change game outcomes.
Just an appalling decision and awfully disappointing.
