Nice to see Lydia Thompson and Rowena Burnfield winning their 50th caps. I feel sorry for Burnfield, no one ever passes the ball to her so she rarely gets to carry. She suffered a bad concussion in 2016 and had symptoms for over a year. It took her a while to get back in the England squad. She is a dairy farmer from Hampshire and learned her rugby at Richmond RFC. England have real depth of talent and it is great to watch.
fantastic result BUT and there must always be stat's in every game, england MISSED 9 out off 16 convertions, that is approx 60% and a loss of 18points. With those points the score would be well over a 100 points. These missed conversation happen to much in every game, it is just as well that the forward are so powerful. Again fantastic result but should have been so much better.
Reffing still aweful the refs really need to call what they see USa would have been destroyed if the ref calls every penalty agaisnt them all 4 scrums in the first 1/2 were penalty to england so many USA in the tackle not releasing, So many times USA coming through on the side of a ruck and hands in. Total pens called correctly 0 agianst the USA. VEry VEry poor and 3 years later we still have the same poor reff'ing going on.
frightening...england very rarely play a 100% game ..they give away penalties make mistakes and miss a lot of kicks if it all comes together one day you will see 100/150 points in a match
Abby Dow is fabulous, she looks like a featherweight but seems to have tremendous core strength alongside excellent technique and real pace.

I remember watching this match on TV and laughing out loud at the sheer audacity of Abby Dow's try.
What a team - hard to pick someone out but I must say that Sarah Bern is a class apart.
Brian Moore absolutely belting out the national anthem 🫡🫡🫡
Has anyone done a speed test on how fast Abby Dow runs?
Was that first second half try a record at 37 seconds?
America moved their soccer skills up a level.Sure they'll do the same with their rugby.
I was hoping they'd get a consolation try, but then someone passed right to Aitchison!
