At just 22 years old, Todhunter has already made 13 NRLW appearances in the hooker position, and she has a promising future.
Mark O’Neill, general manager of football for the Parramatta Eels, stated, “We’re thrilled to have Taneka’s commitment for the next two years, as she has taken her game to new heights this season.”
“It’s great to see our core group of NRLW players sticking with the Blue & Gold.”
Todhunter, a native of the Wiradjuri Goannas and a Dubbo native, has moved seamlessly from rural rugby league to the premier women’s league.
“I’m really appreciative of the Eels’ support throughout my NRLW journey,” Todhunter remarked.
It was difficult to move from regional NSW, but after I joined the Eels in 2023, I settled in. I’m excited to rejoin this strong and cohesive community of sportswomen in 2025.
Representing the Indigenous All Stars (2024), NSW U19 Country (2021), NSW U19 State of Origin (2021), and winning the NRLW’s Vocational Player of the Year award in 2024, Todhunter is still achieving success in her career.
