Wallaroos believe 'possibilities are endless' ahead of 2029 World Cup
Key points
- Wallaroos lock Kaitlan Leaney says the national women's side showed real promise during its recent WXV Global Series tour of Britain and France, ahead of the 2029 Women's Rugby World Cup in Australia. Despite a 48-15 loss to England in Salford, the team led 10-5 at half-time before England pulled ahead.
- Leaney credited the squad's physical intent and well-planned tactics, which exposed weaknesses in England's defence and line-out. A 29-26 defeat to France followed, where the Wallaroos squandered a 19-0 lead, before a 30-10 win over Scotland.
- Leaney believes a full-time programme would transform the team's results.
