Red Roses legend says this year’s World Cup marks turning point in women’s rugby

Former Red Roses legend Shaunagh Brown believes women's rugby has drastically changed since her time on the pitch.

England's Red Roses will go head-to-head against new and improved underdogs Scotland at 4pm on Sunday, September 14.

This year marks a record-breaking year for the Women's Rugby World Cup, with over 400,000 tickets sold across the tournament.

Describing this World Cup as a turning point in women's rugby, Brown said, "Part of you thinks it should have been like this the whole time, but acknowledging that it hasn't been, I think for me that's one of the things rugby and this World Cup in particular have been great at."
