HARPER | Meet Harper, one of the youngest members of The Roar Corps but certainly one of our most engaged! We asked her about what she got up to this season, but also had a sneaky surprise organised for her - a visit from her hands down, all time absolute favourite player, Clare Polkinghorne.

Check out Harper’s reaction and the amazing words that she had to say about Polks, and how she inspires her.

PS. If you can live your life with even half of the enthusiam that Harper has, you’ll have a good life indeed!
