Fearless second rower Kate Porter is one of two players alongside newcomer Caroline Vakalahi from the Australian Services Rugby Union. Kate attended the Australian Defence Force Academy and completed an Arts Degree majoring in Politics and History, she holds the rank of Lieutenant, can scuba dive, and is qualified to jump out of planes. The 27-year-old says she loves a good sleep-in, admires Australia’s Para-lympian Kurt Fearnley and can cook a mean batch of Vietnamese Spring Rolls. Kate’s great great grandad Baldy Thompson is imortalised in Australian histroy in a poem written by Henry Lawson.
