As the reigning champions with seven consecutive titles, England is once again the team to beat, seeking their fifth consecutive Grand Slam. However, with a fresh lineup and a new captain in Megan Jones, who replaces the pregnant Zoe Stratford, the team is looking to build on their recent World Cup victory on home soil.
