Meg Sycamore (17) and Dayna Turnbull (25) at Columba College yesterday after being selected in the New Zealand Warriors NRL Touch Premiership team. Dayna Turnbull and Meg Sycamore have been named in the club's inaugural touch team. Playing in the NRL Touch Premiership, they will face seven other teams aligned to NRL clubs. Both are excited and, while not quite topping playing for the national side, it represents a significant step for the sport. Also in the women's team are Otago players Trisha Hopcroft and Olivia O'Neill although O'Neill's involvement is dependent on recovering from glandular fever.
