By Matt Merritt| RugbyPass Verified Despite the drizzle in the air and greasy conditions on the ground, a dominant display from the Red Roses saw them run out 59-7 winners in a one-sided affair against Scotland in round 4 of the Guinness Women’s Six Nations. Six tries ahead at half time, England were barely in second gear going into the break.
By Matt Merritt| RugbyPass Verified In a game that saw the Red Roses take 35 minutes before they scored against a ferocious Ireland side, before running up the scoreline in the second half, the stats don’t tell the full story. Here’s which opposition players had the upper hand in the clash. Ireland’s ferocious first 40 minutes showed just how far Scott Bemand’s side have come since the Red Roses handily beat them in the same fixture last year.
By Matt Merritt| RugbyPass Verified Today’s scoreline wasn’t quite as one-sided as perhaps the Red Roses might have expected against a defensively dogged Italy side, but John Mitchell’s charges nevertheless ran out as 38-5 winners to start their Six Nations campaign with a win. Tries from Mia Venner, Emily Scarratt, Claudia MacDonald, Amy Cokayne and Emma Sing ensured that, even with a line-up full of interesting picks from the Red Roses coaches, the reigning champions never had to get out of third gear.
