The Red Roses took the lead in the Six Nations on Saturday, inflicting a correction on XV du Thistle (58-7).
England are moving forward. For their entry into the tournament, the unfortunate finalists of the last World Cup won with authority against Scotland (58-7), Saturday March 25, at Kingston Park in Newcastle. Something to celebrate as it should be the last of Sarah Hunter, their emblematic captain with 141 selections.
Out in the 58th minute to the standing ovation of the 10,000 spectators present, the most capped player in the history of women’s rugby undoubtedly left the Red Roses with a sense of duty accomplished. In the lead from the 9th minute of play, the English then unfolded, scoring a whopping ten tries against a long-destitute Scottish team before saving the honor at the end of the game. While waiting for the meeting between Italy and France on Sunday, Simon Middleton’s players are first in the Tournament ahead of the Welsh.
