Knight #30
Dual premiership winner and 2022 Club Player of the Year, Jesse Southwell has taken the women's game by storm since her debut.
A proud Novocastrian and Commonwealth Games Gold Medallist in Rugby 7's, Jesse made her NRLW debut at the start of the '22 season becoming the youngest player in the competition's history to score in her first game.
Following a huge 2022 season claiming the NRLW Rookie of the Year award and her first premiership win, Southwell earned selection for the NSW Sky Blues in 2023.
Back at Club land, Jesse played another starring role in guiding the Knights to back-to-back premierships while previously signed a long-term deal alongside sister Hannah including terms that date through to the end of 2027.
