History at Scotstoun
Just 48 hours later, Scotland Women produced a stunning performance at Scotstoun to earn an historic 13-13 draw with world number four-ranked France in the Women’s Six Nations.
A late try from Rachel Shankland on debut and the nerveless conversion by Helen Nelson saw Scotland claim a first draw with Les Bleues in 19 Championship encounters.

Debuts in Swansea
Whilst Glasgow Warriors were ultimately defeated at the Liberty Stadium by the Ospreys on Saturday evening, there were still a couple of highlights for the Warrior Nation to enjoy.
Tries from Huw Jones and George Turner had put Glasgow ahead early on, whilst the newest two Warriors were welcomed to the fold in the form of Hamish Bain and TJ Ioane.
REPORT | Glasgow Warriors came away from the Liberty Stadium empty-handed, as tries from Huw Jones and George Turner ultimately proved in vain.
