3 d. ago Women’s Rugby World Cup needs jeopardy to stay in Monday morning conversations | Andy Bull

One-sided nature of matches so far is a problem and structural change is needed but there has still been plenty to enjoyAfter all these years of asking for more, it’s churlish to complain when the Women’s Rugby World Cup delivered so much in one weekend.

It had almost everything anyone could have wanted. Almost. The one thing missing was a tight finish.
