NRL: The Southern Orcas today announced a formal proposal to be awarded a licence as part of the competition's expansion plans.
Jillaroos winger Julia Robinson looked up to Isabelle Kelly when she started her rugby league career, which is why she was so worried she might have done serious damage to her close friend last year during a freak collision in the State of Origin series opener .
“I have so much respect for her as a player and a person and looked up to her when I first started playing footy, so when I knew that she was really bad, I had this huge worry and fear factor.“I was messaging her husband and her coach after the game to make sure she was OK because you don’t want to see anyone hurt.
Robinson scored two tries in the win that night at CommBank Stadium, and it’s somewhat fitting that she’ll return there this weekend when Australia takes on New Zealand in the Pacific Cup final.The Jillaroos are strong favourites as they look to atone for last year’s shock loss in the final, with Robinson in scintillating form having scored a record six tries in their opening win over PNG.
