Ellie Kildunne’s touch in this year’s Women’s Six Nations is turning things to gold. The England full-back is not only the tournament’s top try-scorer with four but she also tops the charts for most points scored and in metres carried and gained. The Harlequins player, who will look to add to her stats against Scotland on Saturday, is undoubtedly in great form but she also has England’s expansive attack to thank for giving her the platform.
England’s attack has adapted under their new head coach, John Mitchell, and the attack coach, Lou Meadows. In previous tournaments fans have seen the Red Roses call upon their lethal driving maul often, with the backs not having as much time on the ball. However, England have now unleashed their back line as well as their forwards and maul, making their attack less predictable.
