Views from camp

“From the first whistle against Wales, we want to ignite our campaign and hunt together with real purpose and clarity,” Titterrell said.  

“The connections within this group, the way they support one another and their commitment to being relentless will define how we play. We want to show positive intent in a very difficult opening fixture in Northampton.  

“If the players take true ownership of their roles and embrace the enjoyment that comes from competing for each other, we’ll be in a strong place to start the tournament.”
