Jillaroos Tiana Penitani-Gray previews the Women’s RLWC and discusses adapting to a new role

Yeah, good thanks, T. Um, look, how good's this? The World Cup's about to start.

Um, and, uh, look, I'll start off with this.

A lot's been made about the Australian women's team and how stacked it is, and deservedly so.

Um, but have a look at the Samoan team that you're gonna come up against in the first game.

Amber Hall, Ivania Isako, like, some really good names.

Aneta Nuusala.

So you've got a challenge in front of you this weekend.

Yeah, absolutely.

Look, we've got a, a really big start ahead of us, and I think we're all really excited about that.

Um, I know when you look in previous years of different campaigns, um, the Aussies and the Kiwis are always the two that stand out as the most stacked teams.

But I definitely think that's changed this time round with this World Cup, and it's been so awesome to see, specifically with all the Pacifica teams, um, have all of their players, men's and women's, go back to represent their islands.

It just makes our competition really competitive.

So we've got a really big job cut out for us tomorrow.

We're really looking forward to it.
