NRLW 2021: The Broader Game, Ali Brigginshaw, Queensland Maroons, NSW Sky Blues, captain fires first barb ahead of women's State of Origin


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.

NRL 2021: Western Australia, First Nations Gems, Harvey Norman National Championships opens finals sides chase fast start


Western Australia co-captain Anneka Stephens says her side will need to start fast against the First Nations Gems in the Harvey Norman National Championships opens final on Sunday.
Unbeaten Western Australia finished on top with the Gems, who only lost to WA, second after five matches over three days in Redcliffe.
Stephens, a former forward for the Dragons in the NRLW, said the side "didn't expect" to make the final in their maiden campaign.
It's the first time Western Australia and the Gems have fielded sides in the championships after a revamp of the format this year.
"It's an amazing feeling to be in the final," Stephens told NRL.com.

NRLW 2021: National Championships, day two, AFLW convert Brooke Walker makes NRLW case after strong showing for Victoria


AFLW convert Brooke Walker needed one game of club rugby league to familiarise herself with the code before representing Victoria at the Harvey Norman National Championships this week.
The New Zealand-born five-eighth helped Victoria record back-to-back wins on day two with her light-stepping and agility on show in two strong individual performances against South Australia and Northern Territory.
Walker played for Carlton in the AFLW earlier this season but is now eager to turn her attention to rugby league and possibly become the first player to play in both codes at the top level.
"I grew up playing touch footy then I moved onto rugby sevens and was in their program for a while before AFLW started," Walker told NRL.com from Redcliffe.
