Amy Broadhead

Amy Broadhead already has one piece of silverware this season and now she’s chasing another.

The Wallsend 32-year-old won her first Newcastle and Hunter Rugby Union women’s title with Merewether last month but this Sunday the fullback switches codes to rugby league and will co-captain North Newcastle in the NSW Women’s Premiership preliminary final.

And if the Maidens manage to beat Glenmore Park at Leichhardt Oval on Sunday and go onto upset minor premiers the Redfern All Blacks in next weekend’s decider, it could be enough for Broadhead to consider retiring.

“I’d be pretty close to hanging the boots up if I managed to bag two in the one year,” she said. “I don’t think you could top that.”

Broadhead said a satisfying union crown had been “a long time coming” after a few close calls previously and she thought the league campaign could carry a similar momentum after North Newcastle’s back-to-back sudden-death semi-final victories against Greenacre (32-18) and Mounties (28-20).
