Squad News
Saints have named their 21-woman squad for Sunday’s game. Beri Salihi could make her first appearance in a Saints shirt, whilst England Internationals Tara Jones, Paige Travis, Emily Rudge and Jodie Cunningham could all make their first appearances of 2024, after missing our pre-season contest in Huddersfield.
Chantelle Crowl and Faye Gaskin both also missed that game, but could be in contention to play on Saturday. Luci McColm and Vicky Whitfield are the two notable absentees from Smith’s squad, with both unavailable for our first competitive action of the year.
