By Tayla MitchellThe buildup into the ANZ Premiership final wasn't ideal for Wendy Frew but the Southern Steel's inspirational captain came through and played the full 60 minutes last night's victory. Just weeks after a van crash that resulted in Frew needing surgery on her elbow and knee, she spoke with Radio Sport Breakfast about the accident and the final victory over the Pulse.
