England is crowned for the seventh consecutive time in the Women’s Six Nations, consolidating its dominance in women’s rugby.

In an emotionally charged encounter at Twickenham, England secured their fourth consecutive Grand Slam with a 43-42 victory over France. Although the result was predictable, the French team tested the English, generating a close finish.

Despite the pressure and nerves, England secured their seventh consecutive Six Nations title by a narrow margin. The team, known as the Red Roses, faces high expectations, especially with the World Cup at home on the horizon.

Coach John Mitchell demands complete performance, seeking immortality rather than mere domination.

With only one loss in 56 matches, preparation focuses on the September 2025 World Cup. Positional versatility and team optimization are key, as demonstrated by the case of Maddie Feaunati and the rotations in the opening position.

Mitchell implemented a “one team operating as two” system, mixing players and tactics. England demonstrated their superiority with resounding victories over Italy, Wales, Ireland, and Scotland, showing a large points difference.

The English attack was relentless against France, with outstanding performances by Megan Jones and Emma Sing. Despite this, France scored several tries, which revealed areas for defensive improvement for the Red Roses.

The team must fine-tune its defense before the World Cup preparation matches. The defeat against New Zealand in 2022 spurred a process of acceptance and redemption. The goal is clear: to win the World Cup at home.

The image of Aldcroft lifting the trophy symbolizes the progress and dominance of the Red Roses, but the team aims to reach its highest point at the World Cup, on September 27.
