England's women's rugby team kicked off their title defence in style, securing a 33-12 win against Ireland in front of a record-breaking crowd of 77,120 at the Women's Six Nations. The team's dominant performance was marked by a strong first half, with hooker Amy Cokayne and prop Sarah Bern scoring two tries each, giving England a 21-0 lead at halftime. England's Jess Breach made history by scoring her 54th try, breaking the record and sealing the bonus point for her team. Ireland managed to get on the scoreboard with a try from replacement Anna McGann, but England's Ellie Kildunne added a fifth try to secure the win. The Red Roses are now on a record 34-game winning streak and are seeking their fifth consecutive Six Nations Grand Slam and eighth title in a row. England's captain, Meg Jones, expressed her pride in the team's performance, stating that they 'dug in to get the victory.' Ireland's head coach, Scott Bemand, praised the spirit of his team, particularly in the second half, where they managed to hold England to a 12-12 scoreline. England's next match is against Scotland on April 18, while Ireland will face Italy on the same day.
