Danielle Waterman on her way to scoring twice against Italy
Devon winger Danielle Waterman has kept her place in the England XV for their key women's Six Nations match with France on Saturday at Bergerac.

Waterman, who plays her club rugby for Clifton, scored two tries for England against Italy a fortnight ago.

England and France are the only teams to have won their opening two matches.

"The six nations title has been shared between France and England since 2000 so this could well be a crunch game for us," said England coach Gary Street.

Waterman has given the French problems before

�We have made a really pleasing start to the championship, but we are our biggest critics and we still want to improve and we will need to do that playing away to France."

Last year England beat France 38-12 on their way to a Grand Slam. England would win an unprecedented third straight Grand Slam if they could go unbeaten this year.

So far England have not conceded a try in their opening matches, beating Wales 55-0 and Italy 76-6.
