Tiff only joined us this season and has fully embraced all things HLFC on and off the field. An unfortunate broken wrist has slowed her rugby development, however she has made up for this on the social scene.

Best Rugby moment
My first game for Harlequins
Worst Rugby moment
Breaking a nail in the opening minutes of a game. I knew it would be 40 mins before I could file it and that really bugged me.
Rugby ambition
Ensure nails don't ever get broken again
Why rugby
There just wasn't the interest in welly wanging in the UK, so I had to take up another sport. I used to watch a lot of aussie rules as a kid, but since rugby has way more credibility, I thought I'd give it a go
Describe yourself
Tall, talloned and toned
Favourite alcoholic beverage:
VB - only aussies appreciate its delicately subtle aromas
Other sports
Stalking bodybuilders, Camel hockey and egg & spoon racing.
Favourite meal
Kangaroo steak with pommes sautee
Favourite film
Skippy the bush kangaroo, the sequel
Most likely to say:
aaaaa, yeeeeeah.
Least likely to say:
The 1994 North Harbour junior welly wanging competition was run fairly and squarely and the fact that 2 of the 3 judges were related to the winner is entirely irrelevant. I won Silver and I'm very happy with that.
Favourite quotation:
What's that skip, someone's stuck down a mine shaft?
Best holiday (why):
10 day tour of northern european snail colonies. It was fascinating
