Show Notes
The Red Roses take on their big rivals, Canada this weekend over in Toronto - so before Scaz & Mo flew to Canada, they popped to the Cabbage Patch to have a catch up with Elma.
They’d been training at Allianz Stadium before they left - something no Red Roses team had ever done for an entire camp before now. We hear all about that and look ahead to what they’re looking forward to doing in Canada.
It’s safe to say it’s quite a delirious episode. Scaz hasn’t had a day off in a while and she fully gets the giggles, which means there’s a Scazisms and Moisms around every corner.
We do manage to get enough sense out of her to look ahead to the ‘Rugby Rematch Tour’ with Amy Cokayne back in the starting line up and Sadia back on the bench, things are shaping up NICELY.
The girls take a vote on who’ll be best at running GSR Media Ltd’s HR department and we open some of the greatest listener messages and presents we’ve ever received.

More from The Good, The Scaz & The Rugby
We need to talk about Canada… The Red Roses have lost, the record is gone, and there's a series to save. Can England bounce back? We're asking the big questions this week, and we've got the perfect guest to help: Red Rose World Cup-winning hooker and brand-new mum, Lark Atkin-Davies! Our very own Reverend, Nick Heath, is also in with his analysis of the Canada clash. As always, he's brought the facts and stats to preview this weekend's third and final test.
Scotland’s 75-cap star Lisa Thomson pulls up a seat at the Cabbage Patch in Twickenham to join Elma, Mo and Meggy for this week's episode. Meggy kicks things off with a Chardonnay slap (IYKYK) and then we get into how competitive the girls want that inaugural British & Lions Squad selection to be, before the conversation takes a rainbow-flavoured turn nobody saw coming.
Never in the history of rugby matches have we seen a game end with a penalty kicked short, the kicker making an interception to score in the corner and then kick her own conversion to win the game at the death.
We’re back in camp to get the Scaz & Mo’s reaction to the Red Roses' winning run coming to an end at Sandy Park in the first of three tests against Canada, joined by one of the most decorated players in the game and a stalwart of this unbeaten Red Roses side, Alex Matthews. She’s won the World Cup TWICE, is vice-captain of the Red Roses, and she has been in an England shirt since she was 17.
Sarah Bern & England’s newest 50 capper, Holly Aitchison join Elma & Mo in Red Roses camp. As two of the most stylish women in the game, Holly and Sarah let us in on their style secrets, how they shop and (crucially for Mo) pack for camp, before getting into the Sydney Sweeney controversy, an honest talk about overcoming anxiety, and how WXV is shaping up so far.
