Dentist and lecturer Liz Crake has been named on the bench for Englandās grand slam decider against France on Sunday as Kelsey Clifford has been ruled out with injury.
Crake, who has two caps, was called into the squad after Hannah Botterman was ruled out of the entire Six Nations with an ankle issue. Second-choice loosehead prop Clifford picked up a leg injury against Italy last weekend and so Mackenzie Carson will start and the head coach, John Mitchell, who said he has had been forced into 20 player changes across the tournament because of pregnancy and injury, is having to test his sideās depth.
Crake, 31, did have a contract with England in the 2024-25 season but has had to turn back to dentistry for this campaign. She is not the only part-time professional player to compete for the Red Roses during this Six Nations. Christiana Balogun, who works as a recruitment consultant, came off of the bench against Italy because of an injury to Maddie Feaunati.
The Rugby Football Union has 32 full-time contracts in place for Red Roses players. Those who are not contracted get paid for the days they are in camp and a matchday fee.
The captain Meg Jones said: āThe players [Crake and Balogun] are full of resilience, the way they are able to come in and switch on and switch off based on their other circumstances as well. Itās definitely probably one of those things that you take for granted when youāve been in it [professionalism] for so long.
āI think Iāve been pro now for over 10 years, which is huge but thereās still players within the PWR and still having to come into Englandās setups as well and still having to earn their cash and their way to live as well.
āWeāre fully aware of that. We empathise. But to be honest with you, you wouldnāt notice any difference. They understand when you come in, youāre switched on and this is the game at hand and this is what you have to turn up for.ā
England have been given a boost before Le Crunch with Sadia Kabeya, Lilli Ives Campion and Feaunati returning from injury as three of seven changes Mitchell has made to his starting XV. Kabeya will start at openside flanker, which means Marlie Packer drops to the bench despite being the tournamentās top try scorer with seven.
Feaunati will be at No 8 and Campion slots back in at lock. Sarah Bern also starts in the front row, with Maud Muir on the bench.
In the back line Jess Breach and Claudia Moloney-MacDonald are back as the wing pairing, with Ellie Kildunne shifting to full-back.
The Red Roses will win their eighth Six Nations title in a row if they beat France in Bordeaux.
Liz Crake was called up after Kelsey Clifford was ruled out with a leg injury and Hannah Botterman was sidelined for the entire Six Nations due to an ankle issue.
The Rugby Football Union has 32 full-time contracts for Red Roses players, while part-time players like Crake and Balogun are compensated for their time in camp and matchdays.
The team has experienced 20 player changes throughout the tournament due to injuries and other circumstances, impacting their depth and strategy.
