Ireland may have won the men’s Grand Slam tournament but the Six Nations is not quite over as the women’s TikTok Six Nations tournament begins in a few days time. England were victorious in 2022 with only France causing them any hint of an issue but Sarah Hunter and her squad secured a triumphant Grand Slam finish and will hope to do so again this year.

Simon Middleton’s Red Roses side could well pick up their fifth title in a row this year but the other five teams will be desperate to put an end to England’s incredible record. Middleton is set to step down from his role as England’s head coach at the end of the tournament, following World Cup heartbreak after the side were beaten by New Zealand in the World Cup final.
