Head Coach Grant Wallace
said: “I am again honoured to be coaching such a wonderfully talented group of athletes.  This is a very hungry for success group having been deprived of it of late, being defeated by New South Wales in the past two U18 Australian Junior Championships.  This recent record provides us all with great motivation to enter a National Championship, not in the familiar position as favourite, but chasing others and I am sure this will create great purpose in our preparations.  We are all very much looking forward to themassive challenge ahead and proudly representing this great State in February 2013.”
