Spiranac was in Sydney for a shoot with the Manly Warringah Sea Eagles, an Australian rugby team Founded in 1946, the team represents the Northern Beaches of the city and competes in the country’s premier rugby league competition, the National Rugby League.

For the shoot, Spiranac teamed up with some of the first-team members, namely Reuben Garrick, Toafofoa Sipley, and Jake Trbojevic. The group played some golf at the Bayview Golf Club in Mona Vale, Sydney, with the golf beauty teaming up with Sipley, while Garrick and Trbojevic formed another team. Interestingly, former AFL star and PointsBet Aussie ambassador Dale Thomas caddied for Spiranac.

Spiranac tries her hand at rugby

Despite Spiranac’s prowess, her team finished short of the duo of Garric and Trbojevic. But that didn’t deter the ex-golfer from trying her hand at rugby. The team then moved from the golf course to the club’s home ground, Brookvale Oval.

Sporting an Eagles jersey, Spiranac shot home a goal kick over the bar from close range, much to the aplomb of everyone around. Furthermore, she was also given a lesson on the art of tackling with Trbojevic, who demonstrated the move on a tackling bag.

Spiranac then went ahead with her tackle as well, nearly faceplanting herself with a brawny tackle. The day’s actions were captured and posted on the Eagles’ social media handles.
