Key match-up

Tayla Montgomery (NSW) v Jayde Herdegen (QLD)

The Queensland Under 19 women will be in good hands, guided by Jayde Herdegen who is in the Broncos system. The Queensland Country U17 Captain will bring experience to the side and should open up plenty of opportunity for the outside backs. But with Tarsha Gale Premiership halfback Tayla Montgomery pulling on the sky-blue No. 7 jersey, the class of both halfbacks could prove the difference.
