1. What is your most memorable game?
Well it’s only the beginning of the season so I’ll go with something a little different. The 2009 Rugby 7’s World cup Final in Dubai when the Aussie Girls won Yay!! I was cheerleading at the tournament, the whole week was an incredible experience filled with great memories but to see the Aussies bring it home was so fantastic! A great bunch of girls!

2. What is the best thing about your team’s fans?
Their willingness to wear purple ha! Kidding! Their Loyalty & Passion! I was in a gym in Perth last week &there were guys wearing Storm branded shorts and shirts as they trained…. other side of the country and still supporting proudly!

3. What valuable experience have you received from being a cheerleader?
It’s an amazing experience being on the sidelines for some of the most incredible sporting achievements that our country has seen, but I have also learned the importance of teamwork & that you can make a little girls day by being friendly, having a photo with them & letting them shake your pompoms!! The simple things!

4. Who would be captain of your ultimate team, and why?
Cameron Smith! Because he had already had 5 years experience as the Captain of the Ultimate team! Ha! See what I did there!

“I was here” Beyoncé & “I do not hook up” Kelly Clarkson They both literally describes my personality, morals, values & attitudes as if I wrote them myself!

8. Which team do your family & friends support?
It was Manly Sea Eagles but I have converted them to Mighty Melbourne Storm!
