Megan makes the case for Roses defence

|September 22, 2025
RUGBY UNION Ellie Kildunne may have provided the magic as England dispatched France to reach the World Cup final but Megan Jones insists defence will be the most effective weapon against Canada.

Canada's stunning upset of New Zealand has setup an intriguing main event at Allianz Stadium on Saturday, but Jones says they will face a defence that has been energised by limiting Les Bleues to three tries.
“That defensive shift sums us up because we've got so much heart and desire in this team.
