TOOWOOMBA Warriors women showed the depth of talent in the area despite not having a regular competition to play in by reaching the semi-finals of the Queensland Murri Rugby League Carnival at Ipswich.
Tamara Law, Molly O'Connell and Emily Young played well as the Warriors progressed to the semi-finals, when they met a gun West Inala team.
The Warriors went down 26-0 to West Inala in the semi-final but it was still a great performance from the Toowoomba team given the victors regularly play together.
The Toowoomba men's squad also enjoyed some success making it through to the final 16, when the Warriors suffered a 36-12 loss to Ngalpun Warriors despite leading 12-10 at half-time after tries from Charlie Adams and Dylan Collins.
"We made it down to the last 16. The games are so fast and the quality of football is just ridiculous," Toowoomba men's coach Robert Woodbridge said.
Toowoomba had extra good news after the carnival with Tyson Mitchell named in the Queensland Murri men's team which will tour New Zealand.
The state selections didn't end there either, with Gerome Burns and Wally Peglar selected in the Queensland Murri under 15 boys team that will tour Papua New Guinea.
