The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs are thrilled to announce the signing of Rosie Kelly on a three-year deal.
The talented half brings to the squad 27 games of NRLW experience spread across three seasons with the North Queensland Cowboys and Parramatta Eels.
A former Black Ferns representative, the 26-year-old had a strong NRLW campaign in 2026, where she recorded seven try assists, five forced drop outs, 19 goals and a try.
Able to play at five-eighth and in the centres, Kelly took on the Cowboys’ kicking duties from Round 5, finishing the season playing every minute of every match in the no.7 jersey.
NRLW Head Coach Mark O’Meley says he is looking forward to seeing Kelly arrive in Belmore.
“Rosie is a great addition to our squad. She’s a quality player who brings plenty of experience, competitiveness and toughness to the group,” he said.
I really like the way she goes about her footy. She’s consistent, works hard for her teammates and has a great attitude towards her game. She’s the type of player who puts the team first and brings plenty of value both on and off the field.
“We’re looking forward to welcoming Rosie to the Bulldogs and seeing what she can bring to our program over the next few years.”
Kelly will begin training with the Club when pre-season kicks off in 2027.
