Neden Önemli?
Meg Jones, born in Cardiff but eligible for England through her mother, was named captain due to Zoe Stratford's pregnancy. She has scored in two of three tournament matches and leads England's attack.
There is an alternate universe where Meg Jones played the Six Nations clash between England and Wales in a red shirt instead of a white one. The Red Roses captain was born in Cardiff and can speak fluent Welsh but she chose to play for England, being qualified through her mother. That decision is one of the most important to England’s current form with Jones an integral part of the team.
Jones was named skipper before the Six Nations with Zoe Stratford pregnant and she has excelled. The 2025 World Rugby player of the year nominee has scored in two of the three opening matches, including two against Wales at sold-out Ashton Gate. She is central to the team’s attacking moves. Off pitch, she inspires the next generation, speaking about grief after losing both parents in 2024. Jones said this match meant more now and she delivered a stellar performance.
England inflicted their 11th consecutive win over Wales despite losing Sadia Kabeya to injury after 21 minutes. The team has improved under Sean Lynn. Wales secured a bonus-point with four tries, the final by Seren Lockwood. Their 24 points was the most ever against England, 12 more than last year.
Reaction from England’s Marlie Packer: "Really pleased. Wales gave us a tough game today, we know they’ve improved … Really proud of the girls’ performance. It’s massive. It’s incredible because selling out these stadiums means everything to us … We’re loving it. Every time we come into camp, we enjoy being with the Red Roses."
