Seven members of the Sydney Roosters Roosters 2021 Premiership winning side have been selected in the New South Wales Sky Blues 22-player squad ahead of the Women's State of Origin match at GIO Stadium in Canberra.
Corban Baxter, Jessica Sergis, Isabelle Kelly, Sarah Togatuki, Olivia Kernick, Hannah Southwell and Yasmin Meakes have all been selected by Sky Blues Head Coach and Sydney Roosters NRLW Assistant Coach Kylie Hilder's squad to take on Queensland on Friday June 24.
The squad will begin training at Ignite HQ Centre of Excellence on Tuesday May 31 in their quest to regain the Women's Origin Shield following their narrow 8-6 defeat in last year's contest on the Sunshine Coast.
