SQUAD ANNOUNCEMENT: Thirty-five players will assemble at Hazelwood to prepare for the Red Roses’ second September international against the Black Ferns.

John Mitchell’s world number one side takes on the world champions at Allianz Stadium, Twickenham on Saturday, September 14.

The two sides last played each other at the inaugural WXV 1 tournament, where the Red Roses won 33-12 to claim revenge for their Rugby World Cup 2021 final defeat.

Saturday’s fixture will be the last game for the team before they travel to Vancouver for this year’s WXV 1 where they will once again face New Zealand, as well as Canada and the USA.

The squad consist of 19 forwards and 16 backline players.

Mitchell has named four uncapped players in the squad, namely Georgia Brock (Gloucester-Hartpury), Katie Buchanan (Exeter Chiefs), Phoebe Murray (Bristol Bears) and Bo Westcombe-Evans (Loughborough Lightning).

“We haven’t played New Zealand on home soil very often so it’s always a huge battle, and to be able to play that kind of fixture at such an amazing stadium, I think both teams will be looking forward to it,” said Amy Cokayne.
