MO HUNT insists England are ready to thrill a bumper audience at Twickenham when they face Ireland in the Women’s Six Nations tomorrow.
A crowd of up to 50,000 is expected to watch the Red Roses continue their Grand Slam quest in their first match at the venue since last year’s rollercoaster victory over France that clinched the title.
England have averaged 47 points a game in their three wins to date but Hunt wants the attack that has been enhanced under head coach John Mitchell to take another step forward.
