- Biography:
An Albion Park-Oak Flats Eagles junior, Koster was rewarded with an NRLW debut in Round 1 a year ago and appeared in all but one of the side’s clashing bagging a pair of four-pointers.
She helped lead the Steelers to a Tarsha Gale Cup premiership earlier this year before representing the Under 19s Country side and the Under 19s Blues.
In 2022, she became the youngest player to represent the Waratahs at Super W level aged just 16 years and seven months.
A proud Gweagal and Wiradjuri woman, Koster showed off her utility value spending time in the middle, on the edge, and in the centres before receiving the club's Emerging Talent Award come season’s end.
The 19-year-old will remain a Dragon until at least the end of the 2025 season having signed a contract extension in late 2023.
