Same here man. I enjoy watching the women play, I just don't have that emotional tie to it due to the teams involved.

I can understand why it will be tough to field a team though... The basic logistics would be hard to overcome. I don't imagine many of the girls are on huge money to be able to uproot their lives and move cities for a handful of League games (even if only for a few months). I assume they are mostly all still working real jobs.

Should be a joint side with talent from Victoria, Sunshine Coast and Easts combined.

The Queensland 18s squad includes Sydney Roosters halfback Sam Walker and giant back-rower Jack Howarth who is aligned to the Storm. Both starred for the Australian Schoolboys in their win over the Junior Kiwis last year.

Walker and Howarth were unavailable for this week's camp.

Best of luck to the Thunderbolts SG Ball side who venture to NZ to play the new Warriors side.
