England Seeks Bonding with “Pamper Night” Before Semifinal Against France

Rosie Galligan revealed that England is planning a “pamper night” to strengthen team bonds before the World Cup semi-final against France on Saturday at Ashton Gate. The “Red Roses” arrive at “Le Crunch” as favorites, but aware of the “war” ahead, they will disconnect from rugby during a night of indulgence at their hotel in Bristol.

Actually, we’re having a pamper night on Wednesday, where we’ll all bring our own face masks and wear pajamas to go to our team room to watch a movie together.

These moments are what truly unite and bring us together, so that when we are in the field, we are in a war together.

England has won its last 18 matches against France since 2018, but in their last two home encounters, they barely managed to withstand their Six Nations rivals’ comebacks.

They won 38-33 in 2023 and 43-42 in 2025, but on both occasions they collapsed after building impressive leads.

Le Crunch is the best and probably similar for the French. When you go as a visitor, that’s when it’s really special.

It’s always a pretty hostile environment when we go to France and, similarly, when the French women come here. They seem to come alive and always want to beat us at home. It’s just another rugby match, but that Franco-English rivalry is something that is not taken for granted.
