Video: good luck to the red roses in Rugby World Cup final

The England squad face the New Zealand Black Ferns in a bid to retain the title as world champions.

Over a dozen players from Bristol Ladies are currently away on international duty including captains from the England, Ireland and Wales squad. 

Club Manager of Bristol Ladies, Heidi Chapman-Mercer, looks ahead to tomorrow's match: "This year's Rugby World Cup has truly showcased the talent that exists within the Women's game worldwide. Supporters, whether previous fans or new ones, have been treated to outstanding rugby which will be epitomised tomorrow when England play New Zealand in the final.

"Some would say that game was destined to play out from the start but nothing has been left to chance by either team. England have shone, through their experienced players like Sarah Hunter and Rocky Clark, to the newest and youngest, in the form of Sarah Bern and Meg Jones.

"I can't explain how much it fills you with this immense sense of pride seeing the Bristol players play like they are. Representatives across Ireland, Wales and England have made everyone at the club honoured to have them as part of our family. We will all be watching on Saturday, whether in Ireland or at home, cheering England into retaining their World Cup Status!"

New and existing sponsors of the club show their support for the Bristol Ladies who are involved in the World Cup.
