Five-time Indigenous All Star Bobbi Law will play for her fourth club in 2026 after signing a two-year deal with the Canberra Raiders.

The 2022 premiership winner with Newcastle had spent the previous three seasons with St George, making just two appearances in 2025 before appendix surgery ruled her out for the majority of the season.

A hamstring injury interrupted Law's 2024 season.

Law said she was looking for something a little different after three years in the red V.

"I'm really excited to join the Raiders. I had been at my previous club for the last couple of years so I felt I needed a change to challenge myself," she said.

"I think Bortho (Canberra coach Darrin Borthwick) and the Canberra girls have a really good squad so I'm really excited to meet new people and be in a new environment.

"To come to Canberra and be around some younger girls but also around some older experienced girls that I've looked up to for a long time, I'm only going to better myself as a player and a person so I'm really looking forward to it."

Graduating from their Central Coast feeder, Law debuted with the Sydney Roosters in 2019.

The 28-year-old centre debuted for the Indigenous All Stars the year following her start in the NRL, and has played in each All Stars game since 2022.

She also pulled on the green and gold for the Prime Minister's XIII.

Borthwick welcomed Law's premiership-winning experience, saying "having these type of players in and around your younger girls and what they add in terms of professionalism is terrific".

The Raiders finished 2025 with a handful on wins, and are yet to play finals since entering the competition.

"Bobbi is coming off a season where I know she's hungry, she didn't play much footy this year through injury," Borthwick said.

"To get someone of Bobbi's calibre here, I have worked with her previously so I just know what she brings to the table on and off the field.

"She'll fit into what it truly means to be a Raider and we look forward to having her here as well."
