IRISH TOO HOT FOR WINLESS WALES
Merthyr Express
|April 24, 2025
WALES are still in search of their first win in the Women's Six Nations.
-
Ireland earned their second victory of the championship with a bonus-point success at Rodney Parade.
Wales took the lead following a mistake from Ireland wing Amee-Leigh Costigan and the loose ball was quickly scooped up by Carys Cox to ground before Keira Bevan added the extras.
The visitors responded when Linda Djougang broke through the Welsh defence to score before another brilliant spell of pressure on the home line saw Aoife Wafer able to reach over and ground, with Dannah O'Brien converting both tries.
