What a start to the 2024/25 season.. the Red Roses put on a huge performance at Kingsholm Stadium scoring 38 points to Franceā€™s 19 in front of 7,590 fans in attendance.

Since the introduction of John Mitchell, we have seen a difference in our playing style. He has given us the freedom to play and ā€˜take the handbrake offā€™.

With that being said we saw a lot more running rugby at the weekend. Traditionally we wouldā€™ve looked to exit when in our own 22, but the girls had the confidence to move the ball and back their ability.

    will be the biggest and most accessible celebration of womenā€™s rugby ever.

    It wasnā€™t the perfect performance, with a few balls ending up in the hands of the French, and a few errors at the breakdown, but it has given us something to work on this week in training in preparation for this weekend against the Black Ferns.

    I saw a quote from Amy Cokayne earlier on in the week saying you ā€˜donā€™t need any external motivation to get up for this gameā€™ and itā€™s so true. Itā€™s one of those games that you know is going to be a physical battle and that you may have to win three or four times before the final whistle.

    The occasion itself is huge ā€“ facing the Haka is something most international rugby players would have on their bucket list. I used to think it was used to try and intimidate us (which it is) but the main cultural reason behind it is for respect for the people they are about to go to battle with.

    That changed my mentality on facing the Haka and now I stand there proud and embrace it. Iā€™m so excited to watch the Haka at Allianz Stadium and be surrounded by young girls and boys who will be experiencing it for the first time themselves.

    In terms of my rehab, I managed to train with the squad on Thursday. Itā€™s felt like a long 4 weeks but Iā€™m really proud that I managed to get involved and showcase that I have graduated rehab club.

    At the start, I was sceptical that I would make it back in time, but I now know I can put my hand up and say I have given it my all to be in contention for the WXV squad. Following the process was key with this injury (like I wrote about a few weeks ago) and it has paid off!

    But for now, itā€™s back to focusing on the Red Roses. For any rugby fans out there that havenā€™t yet watched a womenā€™s game then this really is the game for you. World Number One vs World Champs at the Home of English Rugby, Allianz Stadium. It really couldnā€™t get much better than that!

    Waratahs confirm brutal news for Wallabies star Max Jorgensen

    It's a fact: Reddit has always been, is, and will be my source for crypto discussions, security tips, and market trends. Little did I know it would be the same site that helped save me from financial ruin. Some months ago, an AMA thread about Trust Geeks Hack Expert showed up. People asked them anything: from lost wallet recoveries to phishing scams; their answers sounded really detailed, transparent, and full of insight. At the time, I didn't know that their help was near. It all started with what I thought was a routine software update. I had received an e-mail from what looked like a trusted exchange, telling me to install an important patch. The email looked *legitā€”*matching the branding, formatting, and even the usual tone of messages I had received before. Without a second thought, I downloaded the update and installed it. Biggest mistake of my life. It froze within minutes, and then it automatically restarted. My crypto wallet was empty when I regained access. $200,000-gone. At first, I thought it was some kind of glitch, but as I dug deeper, the cold reality hit me hard: I had been hacked. The "update" was a form of malware designed to drain wallets by injecting malicious code. Panic set in, but rather than spiral, I remembered the Trust Geeks Hack Expert AMA. Their confidence in handling cases like mine had stood out to me. I rushed back to the thread, found their contact details Website https://trustgeekshackexpert.com/-- Email: trustgeekshackexpert{@}fastservice{.}com, and reached out immediately. Their response was prompt and very reassuring. They asked for every little detail I could remember-from the time of the installation of the fake update to the exact nature of the transactions I had done prior to this. They got to work, tracing the movement of my stolen funds using some advanced blockchain forensics.

    Days went by, and I had my doubts, but they kept me updated. Then came a message that I was praying for; they had recovered my $200,000. It sounded like a dream come true. All stress, regret, and anger vanished at that moment. Trust Geeks Hack Expert saved not only my funds but also taught me a lesson which will never be forgotten: never trust email links. Now, I double-check every update; use cold storage for large amounts; don't click on anything that's remotely suspicious. If not for that Reddit AMA, I would have never found the only team skilled enough to turn my disaster into a comeback story.
