ENGLAND and Harlequins full-back Ellie Kildunne cannot even fathom how transformative next year’s home Rugby World Cup might be for her country.
The 25-year-old was crowned World Rugby women’s 15s player of the year earlier this month at a glitzy ceremony in Monaco, honoured in part for her 70-point contribution to the Red Roses’ perfect run in 2024.
Kildunne watched the Lionesses’ triumph at the 2022 home Euros spark a boom for women’s football, and the West Yorkshirewoman is now daring to dream about a similar paradigm shift for her sport.
