The Red Roses extended their perfect start to the Rugby World Cup as they thrashed Samoa 92-3 in Northampton. John Mitchell’s England side opened the tournament in emphatic fashion at the Stadium of Light last week, trouncing the United States 69-7, and top Pool A ahead of Australia’s game against the United States. Jess Breach notched a hat-trick while Megan Jones scored a brace as the beaten finalists from three years ago tallied 13 tries at Franklin’s Gardens.
