In their second match of the Women's Rugby League World Cup, England suffered a significant defeat to Australia, losing 78-0 in Perth. The match began poorly for England, conceding a penalty just seconds into the game, and they struggled throughout, trailing 36-0 at halftime. Australia's dominance was evident as they scored multiple tries with ease, showcasing their strength as reigning champions.
England must regroup quickly as they face Samoa next Friday, a crucial match for their World Cup hopes. Fans should watch for potential lineup changes and strategies to address their defensive weaknesses, especially after this heavy defeat.
