RAF Rugby star Flight Lieutenant Amy Cokayne was among England's try scorers in their 43-28 victory over France to win their record eighth consecutive Women's Six Nations title and their fifth Grand Slam in a row.

Flt Lt Cokayne scored the final try for the Red Roses in the 76th minute, ending France's hopes of a second half comeback and a moment which drew in a chorus of jeers from the French crowd in Bordeaux.

Her last-ditch try means that Flt Lt Cokayne rounds off the Women's Six Nations with a 100% scoring record in the tournament after scoring in every one of England's previous matches.

Her England teammates Ellie Kildunne and Jess Breach both got on the scoreboard twice and prop Sarah Bern scoring England's opening try in the first half.

Flt Lt Cokayne missed this year's Inter Service Championships to concentrate on her commitments to England's Six Nations campaign.

The British Army women beat the RAF at Kingsholm Stadium to clinch another Inter Service title last Saturday.
