The women have ceased participation in the 2021 World Cup, but fortunately there is more international rugby on the horizon, with the Eagles taking on Kenya in the first of the round robin games to decides who goes to France 2023.

If all goes to expectations, the third game against Portugal will be the key game. But first the Eagles have to get by Kenya and Hong Kong, which may not be so easy.

Interestingly, the Eagles starting 15 are all MLR players, with the Free Jacks’ Mitch Wilson starting at full back.
