Scotland Women Unchanged For Welsh Fixture
After their sensational victory over France Women at Lasswade on Saturday, Scotland Women travel south to take on their Welsh counterparts this Sunday (14 February, Bridgend RFC, kick-off 2pm). Last weekend’s game saw player of the match, Lucy Millard, deliver a brace of tries in the Scots’ 10-8 defeat of the French, with full back Celia Hawthorn making her debut, Veronica Fitzpatrick reaching her 50th cap and Donna Kennedy her 104th cap appearance for Scotland. After their sensational victory over France Women at Lasswade on Saturday, Scotland Women travel south to take on their Welsh counterparts this Sunday (14 February, Bridgend RFC, kick-off 2pm). Last weekend’s game saw player of the match, Lucy Millard, deliver a brace of tries in the Scots’ 10-8 defeat of the French, with full back Celia Hawthorn making her debut, Veronica Fitzpatrick reaching her 50th cap and Donna Kennedy her 104th cap appearance for Scotland. All feature against Wales, in an unchanged line-up from that which took the field against the French. Head coach Gary Parker said: The attitude and commitment of all the players over the French weekend was outstanding, and this has to be used as a springboard, for us all, as players and coaches, to drive forward our standards and expectations. We can’t be happy just to win the odd big game once in a while. We need to show an urgency to succeed at all times.
