  3. A standout addition from the Sevens circuit, Charlotte Caslick has emerged as a wildcard in the centre conversation. While most of her early XVs appearances have come in the back three, her shift into the midfield against Canada showcased her potential, despite the team’s overall result. Whether she remains in the centres or shifts between roles, Caslick offers Jo Yapp a dynamic utility option with game- breaking ability. Manu'a Moleka A rising star in Australian rugby, Manu'a Moleka is quickly making a name for herself in 2025. The younger sister of Wallaroos flyhalf Faitala Moleka, she made her Super Rugby debut this season with the Brumbies. She earned a spot in the extended Wallaroos squad for the Pacific Four Series. Although yet to be capped at the senior level, Manu’a has already built an impressive resume. She co-captained the Australian Schoolgirls team in 2024 and played a key role in Manly’s U17S side that claimed the 2024 NSW State 7s Championship. Her early performances and leadership credentials mark her as a strong contender for future Wallaroos selection. This Women Rugby World Cup cycle offering a valuable opportunity to build experience at the next level.
