There’s a lot of competition for places at the moment, particularly – despite the presence of capped internationals – from girls who didn’t feature in the 6 Nations.”I’ll definitely be looking at some key head to heads.”The British Police game will be very competitive as they often have a few full and past internationals in the squad – they take it very seriously.Scotland Women Development squad and Academy v British Police, Hughendan, Friday 24 April (kick-off 4pm)15 Ciara Baxter14 Katy Green13 Annabel Sergeant12 Stephanie Johnston11 Anna Fleming10 Emma Evans9 Jenny Miller1 Ellen Beattie2 Nicky McLeod3 Lindsay Smith4 Natalya Macholla5 Katie Barker6 Joan Hutchison8 Louise Gray7 Sarah QuickSubstitutes16 Rosalind Murphy17 Michelle Ovens18 Laura Hanson19 Heather Law20 Frankie Alcock21 Julie Sanaghan22 Claire Bain
