West has made two positional changes with Amy Davis switching from right to left wing and Joanne O'Sullivan moving from Outhalf to the Centre.

Speaking of the task ahead, West said "We are aware of the significance of the 100th Irish Women's game and the entire team and management team are immensely proud to be involved in such a momentous occasion."

"But aside from that occasion we are aware we have a big task ahead of us. This is an important game, England have yet to concede a score in this year's tournament. From our side, we have been concentrating on our set pieces and are looking forward to the challenge."
