Vegas-bound Indie Bostock granted shock early release from Dragons NRLW deal​

Rising NRLW star Indie Bostock has been granted a release from her Dragons contract on compassionate grounds just days before she will board a flight to Vegas with a team of aspiring stars.​

It’s a big move for Bostock, who was granted a release just this week on compassionate grounds despite the Dragons’ fight to keep her.

The 19-year-old made her NRLW debut with the Dragons last season after being developed through the club’s junior grades, but unexpectedly asked for a release at the end of last year.

“The Dragons can confirm Indie Bostock has requested a release from the remainder of her NRLW playing contract on compassionate grounds,” the club said in a statement.

“The club has granted that request and wishes Indie all the best in her future endeavours.”

It could open the door for a move to Queensland closer to her partner, Dolphins winger Tevita Naufahu.

Her brother Jack Bostock also plays with the Dolphins.

I was hoping she could lure Jack or her BF to the Dragons. So much for that.

I can barely contain my frustration any longer.

NRLW is an absolute joke/meme

Women are seemingly being used as bargaining chips outside of the salary cap to boost a clubs chances of keeping/attracting men to the clubs.

Always had a feeling that she would head up north, like most was hoping that he would sign for us and then Jack eventually found his way back as well..
Surprised its still not on Dragons website, considering how fast they're at putting up who we sign etc..

i posted weeks ago she was tracking a Phins player and now this. Why doesnt the phins player leave. You are f&$king kidding me. So first it was Shipton then Bostock and probanly Berry. Are we still blaming Soward or what. F&$k we are a soft touch. Disgraceful

Dragons sign Ciesiolka to 4-year deal​

The Dragons are thrilled to announce that Shenae Ciesiolka has agreed to join the club on a four-year deal, effective immediately.

The deal will see the 28-year-old contracted with the club until at least the end of the 2029 season.

Ciesiolka, who has spent the past six seasons with Brisbane, is an 11-time Queensland and three-time Australian representative.


Also a premiership winner with the Broncos in 2020 and 2025, Ciesiolka comes to the club boasting one of the sport’s more impressive resumés.

“It is massive for us to add Shenae to our squad,” Head Coach Nathan Cross said.

“She’s accomplished a lot in this game and will add another dimension to our backline. I think she will be a huge addition for us on and off the field; her leadership and personality will mix in with our squad really well. We’re on an exciting journey here at the Dragons and it’s great to know Shenae will be a part of it.”
