Scurfield, Sing, Kelter and Packer set the agenda in Premiership Women's Rugby Round 11

Harlequins have the chance to end 2024 on top of the Premiership Women's table after our champions Gloucester-Hartpury inflicted Exeter Chiefs first defeat of the season on Saturday.

It was a real team effort by The Circus, led by full-back Emma Sing who has been in imperious form this season - on Saturday she beat seven defenders, made 133 metres, and assisted two tries her side won 42-12 at Sandy Park.

Sing's impressive statistics are contained in the comprehensive PWR Ratings from Oval Insights. To see the full report click here.

Saracens moved third after winning one of the games of the season at the weekend, halting a four-match winning streak by the Bristol Bears. Marlie Packer came to the fore in a physical encounter to top the tackle count.

Loughborough Lightning were in rampant form on Saturday, Krissy Scurfield running in four tries and making more metres in one match than any other player. Alev Kelter continued the rich vein of form she has enjoyed since joining Lightning.

All eyes now turn to a sold-out Allianz Stadium, Twickenham where Harlequins host Leicester Tigers on Saturday, hoping to set a new attendance record for a women's club rugby match.

That's all from this weekend 👋
