After a bright start from Ireland it's England who go in 11 points ahead at the break on a score line of 18-7. Emily Scarratt has been brilliant and has caused the Irish defense all sorts of problems with her burts through the middle. Still all to play for though in the second half

15-7 to England. Ireland need to steady the ship now after conceding 15 points in the last 10 minutes. They win the penalty but Briggs' kick to the corner goes dead so it's a wasted opportunity for the Irish
