To discuss the women's game, my guest is York City Knights centre Savannah Andrade. 2022 proves to be a big year for the women with the sport being shown on more broadcasters than ever before with Sky, BBC and The Sportsman televising games. There is also the small matter of a home World Cup coming up at the end of the year, which promises to break even more records for women's rugby league.
