Scotland vs England at Scotstoun Stadium, Glasgow
Seven tries to one – that's another comprehensive victory for the powerful England side.
By half-time they led 26-8.
England played into the wind to start with but it took them just over two minutes go score when right wing Danielle Waterman skipped through the defence for a try at the posts. Sarah Bern scored next but Scotland looked to be fighting back when Sarah Law goaled a penalty and the home side's strong No.8 Jade Konkel went over for a try.
later in the match, were times when the Scottish forwards threatened to get on top of the much-changed England side. But England simply kept building on their lead.
Danielle Waterman ran out of her own 22 and then played inside to 18-year-old Ellie Kildunne for a spectacular try.
