Excellent awareness and hustle from Meg and Gallagher on the quick tap. Great execution of the overlap for tries 2 and 3. And a booming carry from Bartlett through the opposing lock, having played the whole game, to snatch the lead!
Still look vulnerable to teams with a good tight game, and you can see on Sale's try with the big overlap that players hadn't recovered and got round the corner, which has been a bit of a recurring issue. But it sounds like we held them up over the line more than once, so there's no lack of effort.

Tigers have announced a partnership with a charitable fund run by former Tigers winger Dave Lougheed, designed to give Canadian women's rugby players opportunities abroad.
This is why we were recently able to sign up-and -coming Canadian international talents Claire Gallagher and Julia Omokuale.

The unbeaten reigning champs, Gloucester-Hartpury, are in town tomorrow for a 1230 kickoff. Slight overlap with the England game, but hopefully they'll have some screens in the bar.
STARTING XV
15 Tess Feury [7]
14 Amelia Tutt [4]
13 Meg Jones [8]
12 Claire Gallagher [2]
11 Francesca McGhie [8]
10 Natasha Jones (c) [28]
9 Amy Relf [27]
1 Leah Bartlett [8]
2 Elis Martin [8]
3 Lisa Cockburn [7]
4 Julia Omokhuale [1]
5 Catha Jacobs [5]
6 Keia Mae Sagapolu Sanele [7]
7 Roisin McBrien [25]
8 Tahlia Brody [7]
REPLACEMENTS
16 Alana Bainbridge [10]
17 Churchy Knight [26]
18 Charlotte Fray [14]
19 Becky Noon [26]
20 Eva Donaldson [8]
21 Morgan Richardson [27]
22 Lucy Nye [18]
23 Sarah Nicholas [5]
Pretty similar team from the win against Sale. Relatively beefy pack and a 6-2 split to combat one of the hardest teams in the game. New partnership in the engine room, with Omokhuale getting a first start, alongside Catha Jacobs. McBrien swaps with Richardson. Feury switches to fullback, with Tutt back in on the wing.
Nothing like the arrival of Gloucester-Hartpury to bring us back down to earth after finally picking up our first win. They've left a few of their stars at home, but still have named a very strong team. Its going to be a hard afternoon, and a serious test of our progression. Our goal should be to make them work for it for the whole 80, and push for a try bonus.
