Scotland's women's rugby team is shaking things up for their final match of the Women's Six Nations, recalling Emily Coubrough and Shona Campbell for Sunday's clash against Ireland. After a promising opening win over Wales, the squad has faced tough losses to England, Italy, and France, leaving them in fifth place in the standings. With Ireland sitting third—boasting two wins from four matches—the Scots are looking to finish their campaign on a high note.
In the pack, Coubrough steps in for Holland Bogan at number eight, while Becky Boyd shifts to blindside flanker to bolster the forward line. On the wing, Campbell replaces Francesca McGhie, who is sidelined after picking up an injury against France. Fly-half Helen Nelson will continue to lead the team as captain, stepping up in the absence of Rachel Malcolm.
This lineup change brings fresh energy as Scotland aims to disrupt Ireland's momentum. The starting XV features a mix of experience and grit, with players like Chloe Rollie at fullback and Lisa Thomson in the centers, alongside the dynamic back three. The replacements bench includes key options like Lana Skeldon and Rachel Malcolm's return potential, offering depth for a strong finish.
For fans gearing up for the match, this is a chance to see Scotland's resilience in action. Whether you're watching from the stands or cheering from home, gear up in your favorite rugby kit to show your support for the team's final push in the tournament.
