They will lose a few one would say but have Corban Baxter and Brydie Parker coming back in 2023

I know when they lost the 6 players to the Knights there were questions about their competitiveness but sometimes that results in opportunities for others.

Keilee Joseph in the run on side each week instead of from the bench and Otesa Pule and Kalosipani Hopoate from the Premiership winning Tarsha Gale cup side not only obtaining NRLW Contracts but being in the 17 each week .

Throw in up and comers in Jada Taylor/ Jasmine Strange/ Angelina Teakaraanga Katoa/Shannon Rose as well who have all had a taste of NRLW and the future is bright.

Astute signings of Destiny Brill / Shaniah Power/Sam Bremner/Jayme Fressard/Chante Temara complimented the squad

Roosters have a fair set up for the Women's game with more to do of course via Tarsha Gale Cup (Under 19's) / Central Coast Roosters in the NSW Womens premiership and Country Womens Championship which the Central Coast Roosters won.

Need comps/development pathways from age 12 upwards to Tarsha Gale Cup (under 19's) and maybe something in between Tarsha Gale Cup and the State Based Comp which one would assume would become a reserve grade comp when the NRLW expands to 17 teams.

A number of other players from Tarsha Gale Cup this season to name a few would be NRLW ready in 2023 for instance

Milly Lupo
Wilson Twins( Leilani and Anneka)
Tayla Montgomery
Iesha Duckett
Zoe Cass
Ally Bullman
Maddie Binding

the move to 6 teams has seen an improvement to the game this year and yeah, we're probably stronger this season despite losing 6 players but hard to see another improvement next year with the introduction of 4 new teams. even if there's enough talent out there to produce 4 more good teams each of the existing teams will lose a lot of players and it will take time to build combinations
