A picture paints a thousand words
We’ve invested so much of ourselves into this tournament for years & to say we are heartbroken is an understatement
Effort/commitment from staff&players can’t be questioned but unfortunately we fell short last night
I hope we did you proud 🏴
Another incredible moment in England camp with Rob & Lindsey presenting our shirts ahead of the next game against PNG
Rob’s final words to us:
“Those who think they can and those who think they can’t are both usually right”
We can definitely do you proud

Thank you to everyone for your support of
@England_RL
women over the last few weeks. Everyone who showed up to games or sent messages of good luck, congratulations and condolence you’ll never realise how much it meant to us all 💕
When you’ve got a broken nose and black eyes and the woman serving you asks “Did you do that playing rugby?”…
we’ve come along way since my early playing career broken noses when that was definitely not anyones first thoughts!
Really enjoyed being part of the

Nice to have the

Was great to be part of the Sky Team yesterday & a massive privilege to watch some live Rugby League! Thank you for all the kind comments, I’ve got a lot to learn but I enjoyed it none the less.
Huge congratulations to the lads across all 4 teams making your debuts, smashed it!

@RLWC2021
Heartbroken for the lads, think we all felt that pain with them. They give us hope and excitement throughout the tournament and played some bloody good rugby, they’ve done us proud 🏴
Catalan get well and truly hammered by salford and wigan but are the only teams that have been able to turn over Warrington and Saints? 🤔
@SuperLeague
is crazy this year!
Still not over that Saints Wigan game!
Absolute magic from Joe Batchelor but got to credit the pass from Hopoate under pressure 👌🏼
Welsby quality as per 👏🏽

take a bow!
I love magic weekend 😍
Finally watched the Kevin Sinfield Documentary, Going the Extra Mile and wow! What a guy Kev is! Not sure there’s many better humans on this planet!

If you near the end of your career and fans and team mates talk about you like everyone talks about James Roby then you know you’ve smashed it!
What a legend! 500 games at the top level in such a successful team is very impressive 👏🏽

You’ve just won the world championship, are number one in the world and were part of the best leg of darts ever including a 9 darter… i’d be sending everyone christmas cards with it on for the next 10 years 🤣

On the 12th August you’ll be making what seemed impossible possible for so many women 🙌
Yesterday was a record crowd for the women’s game, live on sky and a treble completed with this great club…to say I was overwhelmed is a bit of an understatement.
Thank you to everyone who made it possible 👏🏽 superbly ran by

Just one last push now to hopefully make it 3 🏆
Completely unacceptable❌
Nobody should have to put up with this whilst just doing their job.If I received this level of abuse every time I dropped a ball or missed a tackle then I wouldn’t be walking back on the field
Match officials deserve so much respect for what they do!
Brilliant

Women’s sport is on a journey no one can stop now and these women are at the forefront.
Little girls can be anything they want to be and women are paving the way to show them that 💫
