Whether she's flying down the sideline or riding her motorbike, Harvey Norman Jillaroos winger Julia Robinson spends much of her life in top gear.
The speedster has developed into one of the best finishers in the competition, crossing for a record six tries in Friday night's victory over the Papua New Guinea Orchids.
Away from football, Robinson shares a passion for fast cars and motorbikes with her partner Steve. The duo regularly go for rides together, providing the winger a chance to clear her mind and take a break from football.
Her love of bikes is so strong that she named one of her dogs Harley and Robinson said it's a hobby she's enjoyed since a young age.
"I'm an adrenaline junkie," Robinson told jetwinvip.com. "I have my motorbike and ride with my partner, he's got the fast cars and motorbikes.
"I've always been into the boy's stuff. I loved motorbikes growing up and I always told myself I'd have a motorbike and a big black ute and I've done that. I've always loved that stuff and it's just part of my personality."
Since her NRLW debut as a fresh-faced 20-year-old in 2018, Robinson has become a mainstay in the representative arena.
The winger cleaned up at the Broncos end-of-season awards night earlier this month and has translated her club form to the Jillaroos Pacific Championships campaign.
From the winner's sheds: Julia Robinson
Her six tries on Friday night lifted her into equal second on the Australian all-time try-scorers list, two behind teammate Isabelle Kelly who took sole possession of the No.1 spot with a double at Suncorp Stadium. Sam Bremner is level with Robinson on 14 tries.
Jillaroos coach Brad Donald handed the winger her international debut in 2018 and said the success is the product of her hard work on and off the field.
"When you think Jillaroo, you think Julia Robinson," Donald said. "What she brings to the team off the field and on the field is always the same. She's an incredible human and an incredible footballer.
"If anybody looked at the NRLW and said 'who's the best winger in the game?' It's certainly her. There's lots of transition between centres, fullbacks, wingers but she is a genuine winger and the best at her craft."
Robinson might be one of the best wingers in the game, but remarkably she doesn't consider herself a speedster.
The 26-year-old has worked hard to develop the other facets of her game and has focused on building strength and power in the gym.
Every angle of Robinsons intercept try
Friday's match showed her speed has not waned while she has also become incredibly difficult to handle in tight spaces.
"Sometimes I feel like I'm not the fastest player on the field," Robinson said. "When I get the ball and if I make a break I just think 'oh I've got to run now'.
"With my training this year I made a goal to be a lot more powerful and stronger. I was a little bit worried I would lose my speed but I'm still doing alright out there."

The Jillaroos have been quick to turn their focus to next week's showdown with New Zealand, with the team flying out for Christchurch on Sunday.
The Kiwi Ferns stunned Australia in Melbourne last year, the loss fresh in the side's mind.
While they were superb in Friday's 84-0 win over the Orchids, Robinson said they will have to take their game to another level to defeat New Zealand in front of a hostile sold-out crowd.
"It gives us confidence going into next week's game but the Kiwi Ferns will be a whole different team," she said.
"We know their strengths and know they're going to come out strong. There's a few areas we'll need to clean up but I'm very confident in the girls."
