England has maintained its world-record run in the Women’s Six Nations after beating France in a high‑stakes match, while Ireland has crushed Scotland and other results shape the standings. The results come as England’s professionalization and crowd support continue to set the tone for women’s rugby.
England’s women’s rugby squad has named Liz Crake on the bench for the Six Nations decider against France as Kelsey Clifford is out with injury. Crake, who has two caps, has returned from dentistry work to add depth amid a string of changes caused by injuries and pregnancy across the squad.
England have secured their eighth consecutive Women’s Six Nations title with a dominant display over France, extending a world record winning run and maintaining their Grand Slam bid. The squad has endured injuries and retirements, prompting turnover and depth creation as new talent steps up.
