Ooh that was a close call, it looked very much like Jaz Joyce booted the ball dead after Helen Nelson's kick bounced beyond the Welsh try line and towards the dead ball line.

I was watching in the warm up, Coreen Grant is deceptively quick and that's a superb finish on the left wing.

12 of the 15 tries last year were scored form the line out and that's a training ground move.

Only Grant's eighth cap, she's had to bide her time, but really coming to the fore now.

A crucial conversion by Nelson, well played.

It's interesting the penalty there, showing the Scotland respect knowing what type of Test match this is going to be.

We're going to get three points to get that scoreboard ticking over.

Alisha Butchers and Natalia John carrying hard and earn a penalty for Wales that Keira Bevan comfortably strokes between the posts.

It's an area of the game that Wales pride themselves on, scrum and line-out set piece being dominant.

That front row of Gwenllian Pyrs, Kelsey Jones and Sisilia Tuipulotu will be looking to get the upper hand in the first scrum.

Honours even I'd say on that one.

But Wales have a great platform from which to attack and captain Hannah Jones looking lively.

Unfortunately Scotland number eight Gallagher not so good under a high ball and Wales get the first scrum on half-way.

Interesting to see how this goes... Wales will fancy their chances at the set-piece.

Early touch for Wales' new full-back Hesketh... looked solid under that high ball. That will do her nerves the world of good.

The anthems are done, Italian referee Clara Munarini blows her whistle and Wales' Lleucu George gets us under way at Cardiff Arms Park.

Whisper it quietly, but the sun is out here in Cardiff.

Perfect rugby weather.

It's hard to say before the game today, Scotland have momentum having won six in a row but Wales have had a bit of more a challenge having been playing at a higher level in the WXV in New Zealand.

On paper, Scotland's women are flying. A fourth-place finish last year was their best in six years, a WXV2 title in the autumn followed and then Edinburgh produced a strong showing in the Celtic Challenge by finishing second. Results, momentum, depth - tick, tick, tick.

Here comes the 'but' - their fixture list is horrible. With home games against England and France, all the pressure is on them to pick up wins away from home. They have also lost their star player in Jade Konkel-Roberts to injury.

The task is huge but the depth of the squad is where Scotland can finally hang their hat. Just looking at tight-head prop, where they have the likes of Elliann Clarke, Lisa Cockburn and Christine Belisle all putting in a shift for their Premiership sides, shows their potential.

We're seeing the benefits of professional contracts, these two sides have had them for two years now.

In the last seven matches between these sides, six of those have been within seven points so we're due for a close game.

For me the surprise is Chloe Rollie, 61 caps and started everyone of them and she's started each one of them but she's on the bench.

We're not used to seeing anyone else at full-back.

Rollie was one of the players who beat the most defenders last year but Meryl Smith is one of the most talented footballers around lining up at full-back.

Smith might be there to nullify Lleucu George's kicking.

This is the most exciting Wales back line I've seen in recent years.

Debutant Jenny Hesketh has been in outstanding form for Bristol Bears and has hit the ground running since linking up with Wales in February.

We all know the threat Jaz Joyce poses - that girl could find space in a phone box - and what an opportunity for young Nel Metcalfe.

The 19-year-old has been running in tries for fun at Gloucester-Hartpury and should feel right after home next to club mates Hannah Jones and Kerin Lake.

Wales have struggled to get the ball out wide, with the pack being the star of the show, but with Lleucu George at fly-half, we have a player who can pass the ball 40m and kick creatively.

An exciting afternoon awaits.

Wales head coach Ioan Cunningham said: "There was much debate around this selection and that demonstrates the strength in depth we are now building in the squad.

"Test matches against Scotland have traditionally been close and tight affairs and we are expecting the same on Saturday.

"Jenny Hesketh has impressed on and off they field since she joined up with us and fully deserves to make her Wales debut.

"Sian Jones was one of the standout players in the Celtic Challenge and we know how much she is looking forward to pulling on the red jersey and representing her country."

Scotland head coach Bryan Easson said: "It's really exciting to see any player getting their first cap.

"Her [Alex Stewart] performances for Edinburgh have been really positive, and the way she has trained over the last two or three weeks has showed the hunger she has.

"She is dynamic, she is quick... and her along with Rachel Malcolm and Evie Gallagher is a really exciting back row. I'm looking forward to watching them.

"We've not really looked at Wales too much, we've done our homework, we understand them well and we've had some really good fixtures against them in the past, but we've concentrated really hard on ourselves."

It may feel like Welsh rugby is in the doldrums right now, not least after the men's team were left holding the Wooden Spoon for the first time in 21 years.

But head coach Ioan Cunningham is hoping his Wales side can "inspire the nation" with success in the 2024 Women's Six Nations.

The men may have suffered a whitewash but the women are looking to build on last year's campaign, in which they finished third.

He said: "We want to bring loads of passion and entertaining rugby.

"We want to inspire the nation as much as we can and leave the jersey in a better place."

Cunningham said Wales' target is cementing third place for a third successive year, a feat which would once again secure them a place in the top tier of WXV.

"It's everything for us, we have to be ambitious and try and get into tier one again, that's where we want to be," he said.

"We took a lot of learnings from last year's competition and to have that chance again would be great for us."
