Millie Elliott Celebrates NRLW Grand Final Victory with Baby Gigi

Retiring Sydney Roosters star Millie Elliott embraced her daughter, Gigi, on her hip as she celebrated the team's dominant National Rugby League Women's grand final victory on Sunday. The Roosters secured their win with the largest margin in the league's history for a decider.

Elliott, who welcomed Gigi with partner and Rabbitohs player Adam Elliott in September 2025, expressed her pride in the team's performance. "It's something we've been building towards all year. Week in, week out - footy," Elliott said. "To be able to put that kind of performance together in the grand final is very special. These girls really deserve this."

The grand final marked the final game for Elliott and teammate Corban Baxter. "It's been a great year. It's good footy," Elliott added. "They're a great bunch of girls and yeah, couldn't be more proud. You can't beat it."

Baxter echoed Elliott's sentiments, highlighting the team's consistent effort. "We've been building all season and I can say that we definitely saved our best until last," Baxter stated. "I think we put together a full 70-minute. We started strong, defence was outstanding, our middles got us up there and yeah, it was a very tough finish."
