Black Ferns determined to end WXV 1 campaign on a high against France
“We were gutted after the England game. We need to correct that.”In contrast to the Black Ferns’ double defeat, Les Blues enter the head-to-head high off the back of a confident 22-14 victory over the USA. While recent clashes between the sides have been close, the Black Ferns will be eager to regain the upper hand after last losing 18-17 to France during their WXV 1 clash last year. “My rugby has progressed quite a bit this year, playing at this level is a huge jump but playing alongside players like Maia [Roos] has helped me make the step into Black Ferns. “To play in England again for next year’s World Cup is a really exciting thought,” she said.

Late Norway equaliser leaves Ireland sweating on Under-21 Euros spot
Late Norway equaliser leaves Ireland sweating on Under-21 Euros spotPress AssociationThe Republic of Ireland missed the chance to secure at least a play-off berth in the European Under-21 Championship qualifiers as Norway snatched a last-gasp 1-1 draw in Cork. After a tight first half, Ireland began to take charge after the break when Andrew Moran drew a save from Sander Tangvik. Roughan broke the deadlock 15 minutes from time when he fired home from Johnny Kenny’s low ball across the face of goal. Ireland came under considerable pressure as Norway pushed for an equaliser in the closing stages. The complaints fell on deaf ears and the goal stood, leaving Ireland second in the group, three points behind Italy and two ahead of Norway.

Liam Scales delighted to check scoring Ireland goal off his list
Scales barely put a foot wrong throughout the 90 minutes as he relished earning just his sixth international cap. Speaking after the match, the Hoops centre-back reflected on the special moment and explained how getting on the scoresheet for Ireland had always been a personal goal. I think in the last 10 or 15 games, I’ve more than I had in the previous two seasons already. On Ireland ending a three-game losing streak, Scales added: "I think it will give us confidence, and I think that's been missing. "We want to make a habit of winning tough games away from home, winning games at the Aviva.

ALEX BRUMMER: Waterstones owner boosting books
A first step is bringing the High Street bookseller back to a reviving Oxford Street where vinyl specialist HMV is another returnee. The only survivors were the very best small independents, offering specialist or local services on the trendier High Street. It acquired a recovering firm, which had survived the Amazon onslaught and prospered under independent book specialist James Daunt. The opportunity for smartly presented High Street and shopping centre stores – offering add-ons such as greeting cards – was reopening. Daunt, a former City figure who started out with one superb bookstore on Marylebone High Street in central London, was elevated to a transatlantic baron of books.
