The new Allianz Premier 15s season kicked off on the weekend with four entertaining match ups. Whilst three of the games were hotly contested the fourth was, on paper at least, a rout as Harlequins Women put 103 unanswered points on DMP Durham Sharks. Among the scorers was a recent re-acquisition for the club, returning […]
The announcement on Monday last week that the Premier 15s would be kicking off imminently, with a new title sponsor and a host of temporary new laws was greeted with widespread joy from rugby fans, not least as it was a return toward normality.

In particular the wealth of Scottish and Welsh talent plying their trade across the league has often given rise to idle conversation about whether they […]
