Sarah Bern and Poppy Leitch have been named to start for England Women as they take on France Women in the Six Nations at Castle Park on Sunday afternoon (12:45pm).
Bern scored in the Red Roses’ emphatic 51-7 opening weekend victory over Ireland Women and will be looking to continue her impressive form when England welcome last year’s champions to Castle Park.
Poppy Leitch comes into the squad and will start at open-side flanker in place of the injured Marlie Packer.
Simon Middleton said: “We have no misconception of the size of the challenge ahead of us against France on Sunday. We were pleased with our performance against Ireland but we now have to improve to get a winning outcome.
“Given their recent form and the fact France come into the tournament as champions, they rightly go into the game favourites.
