    Unfortunately this was another totally uncompetitive game that does no-one any favours.

    Bit of a non event this championship when you have professionals vs amateurs every other week. Simply can't take it seriously when there's no competition.

    Scrappy game and that will frustrate England.
    Sarah Beckett excellent in 2nd row
    Hopefully injured players be ok for next week.
