    Maddie Feaunatti has been so impressive today, in terms of her ball carry, her gain line dominance and just how much work she does off the ball.

    It looks like she's enjoying herself out there today.

    I said it was only a matter of time... and it was literally two minutes.

    England have the bonus but the Welsh defence just parted.

    A huge scrum by England shoved the Welsh pack off their own put-in.

    But what was Wales captain Hannah Jones doing rushing out of line like that?

    England by-passed the centre with ease and then it a try was a formality despite Lisa Neumann's best efforts.

    England are a team that will put you to the sword if you give them a chance, that's why it's so important to keep your defence organised and make those one-on-ones.

    That's a testament to how loud the crowd is here that the players didn't hear the ref blow the whistle!

    Abbie Dow thought she had England's fourth then but Ellie Kildunne's pass is ruled forward.

    However you get the feeling it's only a matter of time.

    Well we're just over a quarter of the way through and for 10 minutes it looked like we could have a proper Test on our hands.

    But three tries in nine minutes from England mean they have taken a real grip on this.

    England have got so much variation in that pod of forwards, it could be a tip inside, it could be a flat pass across the front, and there's just so many threats for the Welsh defence to try and pick out.

    The prop is over between the posts.

    That was all about power.

    I say that but the catch and pass by number eight Maddie Feaunati took out two defenders and left Bern with an open goal.

    That's the prop's 24th Test try... remarkable! That's better than most wings!

    Yes Rachel, you have to absolutely squeeky clean against a team like England.

    The first try came from a missed tackle, the second from a lose kick.

    If Wales are looking for a successful kicking game their kick chase needs to be on point, it has to be connected, and put the team receiving the ball under pressure.

    They're just not doing that.

    No wonder England centre Meg Jones feels so comfortable here, she was born just a couple of miles from this stadium.

    That was absolutely quality from Meg Jones. You cannot give her even a little bit of space, she's got so much skill, so much pace.

    This came from the errors from Wales' kicking game.

    'What a run' - Jones grabs England's second try against Wales

    What a response from England. Two tries in four minutes as the Welsh-born centre skips through to put England ahead for the first time.

    The centre scooped up a lose ball in midfield, beat one tackler before stepping past George and then Joyce with a mazy 35-metre run.

    Absolute class.

    Wales will be frustrated, they probably feel that should've been a penalty for a pull of hair, but they have to sure up those seams.

    It was too easy for England

    England hit straight back and Wales were only ahead for a few minutes.

    Feaunati takes a lineout, one hand off against Bethan Lewis who just went too high and England's number eight is clean through.

    All square.

    Jenni Scoble comes up with a great turnover in midfield to snuff out England's attack early.

    That was an area England knew they needed to brush up on after Italy had success last week.

    A massive couple of minutes for the young Welsh prop.

    Massive scrum from the Welsh pack. Georgia Evans chooses to carry and she was well supported so not isolated, and Jenny Scoble drives those legs half a meter across the line.

    I was expecting her to keep the ball in and to go for the penalty and really set the expectation.
