WRP 145 - Super Saturday with 50K +

An historic game awaits the 50K + supporters (and they all pid for their tickets!) that will travel to Twickenham on Saturday; the first game of Super Saturday, Italy face off against Wales and Scotland host Ireland. As well as looking ahead World Cup winner Rachael Burford and Johnnie Hammond reflect on last weekend, with some fascinating performances and results. The biggest talking point was that victory for Scotland, finally; no better person to speak to than their leader and captain, Rachel Malcolm. The skipper speaks of the sense in the warm up and in the eyes of players; that the long waited victory would be theirs against Italy. How that happen, tactically and the main players involved; the flanker also throws some bouquets to her front row and a couple of 50-cappers! England's win is discussed and just how difficult Ireland made it for the Red Roses, and where Simon Middleton's side will need to improve against France. The other unbeaten side, France dismantled Wales in the opening half out in Grenoble, just why were they so "on it?!" Where will Wales need to brush up, did selection have a say in the result? All this plus news from Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Hong Kong, plus those shout outs.
