Scotland eager to 'right wrongs' against Italy
[SNS] Forward Elliann Clarke wants Scotland to "right some wrongs" against Italy in the Women's Six Nations on Saturday after their hammering by England last week. The Scots followed their opening win over Wales with an 84-7 home loss and are looking to bounce back in Parma. "Coming off the back of last week, we really are conscious that we want to put in a really good performance this weekend and right some wrongs from England last week," said Bristol prop Clarke.
"But we're excited to play against Italy. They've got some really exciting backs and they play a really fun, exciting brand of rugby to watch so I think it'll be a challenge. "It always is, it's always a close game and it's gone back and forward between us over the last few years.
But in training we've been really excited to take some steps forward and really get into them up front and in set-piece and just prove ourselves a bit further from last week. "Physicality will be our first thing we're looking for and then just a bit of skill execution. "We really want to go out there, score some points, put on a performance that genuinely we can be proud of as players, as coaches and for the fans at home to really give them something to cheer.
