I was commenting to wife it was more enjoyable than watching a lot of men's senior game, more open, great skills, still big hits and commitment, but just a bit more space. Great to watch. G

Was slightly surprised the crowd wasn't even bigger, given we saw coaches from Lowestoft and Colchester amongst others. Girls and Ladies rugby is really booming at the moment.

They thoroughly enjoyed both the game and the atmosphere. Have been watching the England games on TV - entertaining games. Looking forward to next week's decider - hopefully an England win, but a more even contest than many of England's games to date (a positive points diff of >240 after 4 games is something to behold)
