NRLW 2021: The Broader Game, Ali Brigginshaw, Queensland Maroons, NSW Sky Blues, captain fires first barb ahead of women's State of Origin : vimarsana.com
Ali Brigginshaw has fired a barb at NSW leading into the Women's State of Origin on June 25 with the Dally M Medallist suggesting Queensland has the stronger club competition. Brigginshaw's Valleys Diehards fell short of claiming the BHP Premiership over Burleigh last weekend with Maroons teammate Tamika Upton scoring the match-winner with four minutes remaining. However, it was Brigginshaw's words post-match which drew the attention of those south of the border, when talking to the crowd at the presentation. The 31-year-old declared the eight-team, seven-round competition in Queensland offered more to players than the Harvey Norman NSW Premiership. All NSW players in the Origin side except Millie Boyle, who is based in Queensland, play their club footy in the NSW state competition.
