A TRY from Worcester Rugby Club hooker Nicola Goodwin helped England to a 27-7 win over Waikato Province yesterday.
Goodwin was joined on the pitch by fellow Sixways player, wing Nicola Crawford.
Crawford and Worcester scrum-half Joanne Yapp are in the starting line-up for England's second test against the Black Ferns on Saturday. Goodwin is a replacement in the squad.
England will face the world champions for the second time in eight days following last Saturday's narrow 15-10 defeat.
The match will be played at North Harbour Stadium, Auckland, as a curtain raiser to the men's international game between New Zealand and Manu Samoa.
