Scotland captain Rachel Malcolm anticipates a tough match against Ireland in the upcoming Women’s Six Nations.
Scotland secured their first win of the championship in their previous game against Italy, while Ireland suffered their fourth consecutive loss against England.
Malcolm believes the game against Ireland will be a physical battle as they have a strong and physical pack. She also acknowledged Ireland’s improvement throughout the championship and their potential danger, particularly in their forwards.
Scotland will have Emma Orr back in the squad after missing their previous game alongside experienced players Sarah Bonar and Emma Wassell.
Malcolm praised her team’s performance against Italy, stating that it demonstrated their potential to build a competitive squad for future championships. The match between Scotland and Ireland is set to take place in Edinburgh.
