Show Notes

Maya Stewart is the Wallaroos all time-leading try scorer - a special feat made all the more impressive considering she first picked up rugby union ball at eighteen years old.

Maya is now a key member of the NSW Waratahs side who are the most successful team in Super W history and finished off her 2024 season being crowned Wallaroos player of the year.

In this chat, Chlo and Maya chat all things Rugby Union and what it means to have such a quick rise in the sport after overcoming two ACL injuries along the way. We hope you enjoy this episode.

*Just a quick note, Chloe caught up with Maya before the Wallaroos first test match of the year. But in that match against Fiji, Maya was injured so while she won’t get to play this weekend against New Zealand we’ve got all our TFAP fingers and toes crossed for her return as soon as possible.
