QLD now on top with field position. Look a more gelled side.
#12 Papalii and #8 Yarrow the standouts early for QLD.

Massive forward pass for NSW to hit back. Touchie must be blind.

Great sideline conversion though.

And interesting game. I only saw bits and pieces. I thought the ref was pretty ordinary and very pro QLD.
QLD were much better than the invitational side (Not a NSW rep team). They seemed to all be footballers.

To be honest I was a bit disappointed in the quality of the game esp from the nonQLD team. I was still very happy that something like this is going on. Lets hope it keeps going.

I do agree I think QLD will dominate the Australian team. I think Bulman was one of the other teams best. She just needs to learn to be a bit more relaxed in her passing

QLD 30 def NSW/ACT 6

Should see a strong representation from QLD named in the Australian side to tour Europe.
Is there information on the tour to Europe ?
I think Women's / Girls RL has a greater potential to spread the code than the Men's game.

Being in the top ten / twenty nations is an attractive carrot to dangle to government bodies.

Outside the Oceanic, Celtic, English and French squads I think the competition for places will be reasonably even in the early days and then it will be up to who invests more into the women's game.

the women should play in lingerie like the NFL womens league
Its maybe cliche, but did you know that despite having to wear what they wore, they were in fact very good athletes and there is at least one player in the NRLW that played in the NFL women's league.
See if you can find out who it is
