What they said 

Head Coach Kenny Murray said: “Playing against England is always an exciting way to begin the Six Nations and the whole team are looking forward to giving their all at the Twickenham Stoop.

“We’ve learnt a lot from our campaign last year and the guys have been working hard to implement those lessons in training to make sure we can walk away with a result we are proud of.

“It’ll take a great amount of physicality and determination from the team to walk away with a victory and I’m sure the players have it in them.”

The team

Callum Norrie, Liam McConnell, Rudi Brown, Ben Afshar and Finlay Burgess are the only players returning to the setup from last season.
