The NSW Waratahs Women have named a squad for their trip to Perth to take on the Western Force at UWA Sports Park this Saturday, kicking off at 1:30 PM AEDT.

Head Coach Mike Ruthven has selected a well-balanced team led by captain Emily Chancellor, as they look to continue their strong form heading into the 2025 season. 

The Waratahs will look to dominate the breakdown and set piece, with a powerful forward pack spearheaded by Robinson, Parker, and O'Gorman. Captain Emily Chancellor will provide crucial leadership in the back row, while the backline, led by an exciting new half-back combination of Bird and Ellis, promises attacking flair and versatility.

With a mix of Wallaroos representatives and promising newcomers, the Waratahs are set to put on an impressive performance against a tough Perth side.
