  1. England 35-0 Scotland

    Brilliant footwork from Ellie Kildunne keeps a ball in play as England have the ball near the try line once again.

  2. England 35-0 Scotland

    Abby Dow should get involved in the party, the England wing beats one player but loses the ball as she reaches for the line under pressure from Caity Mattinson.

    England's best win in this game was 89-0, by the way.

  3. England 35-0 Scotland

    England are scoring a point a minute at the moment. What might this end up?

    It's another Scotland error and England are so dangerous from there.

    Abbie Ward has been phenomenal the entire Six Nations and it takes more than two players to stop her from that distance.

    Abbie Ward (con Aitchison)

    Scotland make a mess of gathering a lineout at the back, England recycle the ball well and there's no way you're stopping Abbie Ward from there. She reaches out and touches down.

    Holly Aitchison does what she does.

    Great tackle! A try-saver as Claudia MacDonald again charges for the line but Emma Orr gets enough of her to force her into touch.

    Marlie Packer has not been involved since the opening-round win over Italy.

    The former England captain needs a big game today after impressive performances from Sadia Kabeya in the seven shirt in recent weeks.

    That try will help!

  9. 'Great finish by Claudia MacDonald'

    England 28-0 Scotland

    Katy Daley-Mclean
    Former England captain on BBC Two

    It's a great finish by Claudia MacDonald. She has great balance at pace and then the footwork off her left foot to beat the final defender is great to watch.

    To see her do this with the injuries she has overcome is amazing to see.

  10. England 28-0 Scotland

    Brilliant play from Evie Gallagher, who nips in and wins the ball back for Scotland. They have good field position now and can surely get on the board...but no! Claudia MacDonald comes up with ball in hand for the hosts.

  11. try

    Converted try - England 28-0 Scotland

    Claudia MacDonald (con Aitchison)

    A huge grin on the face of Claudia MacDonald as she breaks the line, she knows she's going to score well before she does, a lovely sidestep and then slides over the line.

    Holly Aitchison notches her most tricky kick to date from wide right.

  12. England 21-0 Scotland

    Scotland eightJade Konkel rips the ball in a tackle to win the it back for the visitors but they just can't get out...

  13. England 21-0 Scotland

    Oooofff, England centre Jade Shekells bounces two Scotland players to the deck with a serious hand off. I felt that from up here...

  14. England 21-0 Scotland

    We mentioned earlier that England average a 48-point win in games against Scotland and, well, that's more than on the cards here.

  15. try

    Converted try - England 21-0 Scotland

    Zoe Aldcroft (con Aitchison)

    England are opening it up! It's well read, Zoe Aldcroft is waiting for the pass from Scotland 10 Helen Nelson and once she intercepts nobody is catching her!

    Holly Aitchison tees it up no worries as well.

  16. England 14-0 Scotland

    Sue Day holds the record for England tries with 61, by the way.

  17. try

    Converted try - England 14-0 Scotland

    Marlie Packer (con Aitchison)

    A 50th England try for Marlie Packer!

    England drive a scrum to near the line, Maddie Feaunati dives to within a few inches and is held up and Packer picks and goes to burrow over.

    Holly Aitchison adds the extras.

  18. England 7-0 Scotland

    Well that's almost brilliant! Claudia MacDonald flies through the air to to collect a box kick, beats a tackle and breaks the line, England look through but her pass outside is well intercepted by Rhona Lloyd and the immediate danger is gone.

  19. England 7-0 Scotland

    Scotland wing Fran McGhie beats a defender and is well tackled but the visitors have had a bright spell, preventing England from building much pressure in any case.

  20. England 7-0 Scotland

    England lose a lineout for the first time all Six Nations and Scotland are into the England 22, can they make an impact - but no, Sarah Bern comes up big with the steal for England.
