England Boost Forward Pack with Return of Ives Campion, Feaunati and Kabeya for Six Nations Decider
England have bolstered their forward pack for the Women's Six Nations Grand Slam decider against France with the return of World Cup winners Lilli Ives Campion, Maddie Feaunati and Sadia Kabeya. The three players will feature in Sunday's match in Bordeaux after missing last Saturday's win over Italy due to injury.
England have called on reserves, especially up front, with several players sidelined. That approach has helped preserve a 37-Test winning streak and kept the team on track for a record fifth straight clean sweep of the tournament.
Still, the Red Roses are closer to full strength now than at any point since their opening-round victory over Ireland.
Ellie Kildunne returns to her usual full-back position. She joins Jess Breach and Claudia Moloney-MacDonald in an experienced back three.
Zoe Harrison retains her spot at fly-half. She has impressed with her kicking off the tee and from hand all tournament and starts ahead of Holly Aitchison.
Delaney Burns, who earned her first England caps since 2023 in this campaign, pairs with Ives Campion in the second row.
