Lucy Packer has started this game brilliantly. The fast pace of play is coming from her service.
Natasha Hunt is 37 and will probably not be around for the next World Cup.
A changing of the guard?
England 14-0 Ireland
Lucy Packer, under pressure with the Irish back row bearing down, sends a superb kick from halfway to the right touchline in the Ireland 22.
The scrum-half even gets applause from her own team-mates for that.

Nobody was stopping Bern and nobody was getting underneath her. Such a brilliant try.
Ireland have to find a way to get back into the game.
Sarah Bern (con: Rowland)
England move to the right and hunker down by the posts, allowing Sarah Bern to pick up, shake off a defender and smash over right by the upright.

Kildunne is being targeted by Ireland and anywhere she goes with the ball, there is a swarm of green shirts.

The lineout doesn't head to the line this time, and England spin it to the right. Jess Breach is scragged as she tries to pass back, but there was an Irish infringement and England kick for another lineout by the try line.
England 7-0 Ireland
Sublime stuff from Ellie Kildunne, as under pressure she back-flips a pass to her right, right into the onrushing Claudia Moloney-MacDonald's path.
Then Stacey Flood comes through at a ruck and England kick to the corner.

Lane has just dropped the ball, is it nerves or connection or the whole occasion?
England 7-0 Ireland
More handling errors, then pressure at the scrum see Ireland forced back as England kick a penalty towards halfway.
England 7-0 Ireland
Great skills on display as Stacey Flood's excellent grubber kick bounces towards the England try line.
Holly Aitchison follows it back, and cleverly pats the ball back to herself before clearing.

Ireland have never played in front of a crowd this big before - it is showing.
Lots of unforced errors.

Ireland are not daunted by England's score, and they are running it back at the hosts until centre Eve Higgins spills the ball despite seeiningly in control as she glides to the left.
That is Ireland's third handling error so far - nerves?

It is like we have never been away. England are just doing what England do so well. It's going to be a long day in the office if this continues.
Amy Cockayne (con: Rowland)
England are in a familiar groove already.
Lilli Ives Campion claims the lineout, the Red Roses rumble towards the line infield and Amy Cockayne cannot be stopped from close range.
Helena Rowland lands a tricky conversion from out wide, and England are up and running.

Defensively Ireland look confident but discipline is going to be key.

Nice footwork on the touchline from Meg Jones, then England win a penalty that is pumped to touch near the Irish 22.
They spin it wide to the left, and Claudia Moloney-MacDonald tries to wriggle through until Ireland go off their feet.

Both teams have come to play and both teams don't seem to have come with a reserve way of playing.
England 0-0 Ireland
Brittany Hogan rampages through the middle to about 10 metres out, after a missed tackle by Jess Breach but Maddie Feaunati stops the Irish flanker in her tracks.
An excellent and encouraging start by the visitors.

It is going to be interesting to see how England ease their way into this game!
