NSW Waratahs the grand final hurdle in Charlotte Caslick’s Super Rugby Women’s season with Queensland Reds

Charlotte Callelk is a kind of rugby pioneer.

She has tried the Olympic and World Cup glory with the Sevens team in Australia and, in 2020, headed the NRLW for a season of the whole season with Sydney’s roosters.

In 2025, the last change of code of the 30 -year -old has seen her assault the competition of Super Rugby women and has her dream of the Wallooos World Cup team.

In their first season in sport, the Reds of the Queensland de Callelick are now only a victory of a single -rugby single woman title.

They face NSW’s successful Waratah in the decisive tournament on Saturday afternoon at North Sydney Oval.

It is a massive turn since the reds were tablespoons of wood last year.

“It’s really exciting,” Cellick told ABC Sport.

“Obviously, after last season, the girls of the Reds really wanted to leave and show what they are capable of.”

And Civilick believes that his team has a real photo of limiting a fairy tale season with a grandmother’s triumph.

“It seems that we are really hitting our straps, everyone joins and they are glating well,” said Civilick.

Despite a loss of 36-14 in the accessory of the regular season between both sides, the end of the Reds Ivania Wong also believes that your team will be in the contest on Saturday.

“Between the group we have that belief there and I think you need to enter a great final,” Wong said on Friday.

“It is a completely different ball game, and to play the most dominant team that has been in our competition, there is a belief that we can do the job.”

After claiming the title in five of the seven female seasons of Super Rugby played to date, the Waratah will leave to preserve their remarkable history of never having lost an Australian team.

NSW’s back cycle, Emily Chancellor, said the revolution of the reds of this season is just something good for the development of competition.

“We have been asking for a more competitive season since the beginning of Super W,” said Chancellor on Friday.

“And this year, it can be said for the Scorelines that the competition has much more competitive.

“That does not mean that you want someone else to win … we are anxious for a competitive game and the best team will be on top.”

A monumental year for female rugby

2025 is a massive year for Australian women’s rugby, headed by a World Cup at the end of August/early September and with the Pacific Four series in May, as well as two tests against Wales.

Callelick expects this to provide more than enough opportunities to achieve its next sports goal: a debut in the international rugby union.

“It is the greatest amount of trial matches that the Wallaroos will have in a season,” Cellick said.

“I will try to have as many time as possible, so it’s perfect for me.”

But ultimately, it is an appearance in this year’s World Cup that would mean more for Callelick.

“As a athlete to be part of that World Cup would be a real culminating point of my career if I have the opportunity,” said Civilick.

And with a clash with the old enemy that is coming in the group stage, Callelick said the tournament could be a monumental moment for women’s sport in general.

“The World Cup itself will be incredible to be part of being part, having England in our pool and playing them early in the tournament will be something special, ticket sales are in the clouds,” said Cellick.

“The support that red roses have in the United Kingdom is incredible, so for women’s sport it will be incredible.”

Wallaroo’s chancellor of sixteen tapas, on the other hand, leaves any discussion of the World Cup until after Saturday’s decisive.

“The World Cup is a factor that must play at the bottom of your mind, but we are not talking about that,” said Chancellor.

“We are so focused on acting for our state and acting for this team … so everything is focused on the work in question tomorrow and nothing more.”
