England’s heartache at the Women’s Rugby World Cup three years ago has made them ready for the final against Canada on Saturday, says the hooker Lark Atkin-Davies.
The Bristol Bears star came off the bench in the 34-31 final defeat against New Zealand at Eden Park in 2022, but says England are a “very different” team this time around. “You can reflect and learn from it but it’s made us ready for now,” Atkin-Davies said.
