Kildunne sets new PWR record as Scurfield, Sing, Kelter and Packer set the agenda in Premiership Women's Rugby Round 11

Harlequins will end 2024 on top of the Premiership Women's Rugby table after our champions Gloucester-Hartpury inflicted Exeter Chiefs' first defeat of the season in Round 11.

It was a real team effort by The Circus, led by full-back Emma Sing who has been in imperious form this season - she beat seven defenders, made 133 metres, and assisted two tries her side won 42-12 at Sandy Park.
