Scottish women's coach Parker keeps faith in France conquerors

Scotland women's head coach Gary Parker has named an unchanged team to take on Wales but has called on his side not to rest on their laurels after the stunning victory over France.

Parker has kept faith with the same XV having seen two tries from Lucy Millard earn his side a shock 10-8 victory over big guns France last weekend.

This means full-back Celia Hawthorn will earn her second cap, after making her debut at the weekend, while Donna Kennedy will climb to 105 international appearances.

And Parker is urging his players to use the momentum to help them get a result in the Wales game.

He said: “The attitude and commitment of all the players over the French weekend was outstanding.

“This has to be used as a springboard, for us all, as players and coaches, to drive forward our standards and expectations.

“We can't be happy just to win the odd big game once in a while. We need to show an urgency to succeed at all times.”

Scotland: Hawthorn, Blakebrough, Millard, Kerr, Fitzpatrick, Griffith, Dalgliesh, Lockhart, Walker, McCord, Wheeler, Moffat, Reid, Kennedy, Brown

Replacements: Quick, Murphy, Grey, Slaven, Gill, Douglas, D'Silva
