“Taniela and Angus aren’t just good players – they’re good people and even better role models.

“We’re excited to have them attend our 90th anniversary celebrations as guest speakers and panelists but what’s most exciting is to have them on deck and interacting with our juniors.

“It’s an opportunity to create lifelong memories for our next generation of rugby players and inspire Tasmanians to take the next step in a journey towards Wallaby and Wallaroo gold.”
