Millie Boyle, by her own reckoning, hardly fits the mould of a traditional prop, but if they fail to stop her at Accor Stadium on Sunday, Parramatta can all but kiss their premiership hopes goodbye

Millie Boyle, by her own reckoning, hardly fits the mould of a traditional prop. But then you see the fends that send Emma Tonegato and Keeley Davis to the turf, and you’re convinced there is no better place for her.

Boyle, quite literally, is built different. At 182 centimetres, she towers over every other player on the park in Sunday’s grand final. It makes bringing her down a two-player job at the very least, allowing the 24-year-old to capitalise with second-phase play. Immortal Andrew Johns spoke of it with Jim Dymock recently, the latter saying the women’s game is a reminder of how rugby league was played in the 1990sMillie Boyle has played a huge role in Newcastle’s march to a maiden NRLW grand final appearance.“To be honest, more wrestle means you get more time in the tackle, which means your players can get set more. ‘Pure’ just means not as developed,” Boyle said.
