Scotland are back at home this weekend, but winger Francesca McGhie is still thinking about their last game at Murrayfield.

A record crowd of more than 30,000 - the biggest standalone crowd in Scottish women’s sports history - saw them lose heavily to England but McGhie says the result didn’t totally spoil the day.

“That many fans there at Murrayfield was incredible, it was overwhelming,” the 23-year-old says.

“As we walked in off the bus we all just felt so supported and so proud of how far we’ve come.”

She says it’s been “tough to come in off the back of an injury” but she’s just glad to be back playing.

“[It’s] amazing to pull the thistle back on the chest and just play with all the girls was great.”

McGhie also says the team “absolutely love spending time with each other on and off [the] pitch” and even found a fun way to turn the US music festival Coachella into a bonding session.

“We recently had, we called it Scotch-ella,” she says.

“So it was the week of Coachella, there was music charades, there was humming and it was just brilliant.

“We were dressed up in tie-dye and had some moustaches on and it was just fun.”

It was a fast and furious start for France, with captain Manae Feleu opening the scoring inside 50 seconds.

Although they secured the bonus point after 31 minutes with a further three tries, Scotland didn't let them pull too far away with Rachel Philipps dotting down for two of her own.

France restored their three-try lead on the stroke of half-time through Lea Champon.

And that's half-time.

There were 14 tries in Parma as England beat Italy 61-33.

We've had seven so far in Edinburgh. France lead Scotland 31-14.

France made a change shortly after that try. Madoussou Fall Raclot has made way for Kiara Zago.

What a hit that is by Madoussou Fall Raclot! She left Leah Bartlett flat on her back!

But Scotland still have it...

Scotland push for an immediate reply, bursting forward through Fran McGhie, who does well to collect a looping pass, and Becky Boyd.

Play is halted as Elis Martin is down on all fours in some discomfort. She's cleared to continue after receiving treatment.

Huge carry from Siobhan Soqeta as France creep up on Scotland's 22.

They want a bonus point and they want it now.

France are back to 15, by the way.

A pause in play as Fran McGhie receives some treatment for a blow to the head.

After fielding the ball, Charlotte Escudero blew threw the Scottish winger, who got her angles wrong and collided with the French player's shoulder.

She's ok to continue.

From the line-out, Madoussou Fall Raclot single-handedly drags France to within 10 metres of Scotland's line.

Here they come!

France concede a penalty at the scrum and Scotland take it quickly, shifting the ball to Rachel Philipps on the right flank.

However, Lea Champon brings her down and secures a penalty for France. Back up the pitch we go.

This game is end to end. You can't take your eyes off it.

Chloe Rollie intercepts a French pass and charges forward before getting the kick away as Carla Arbez tries to fell her. Rhona Lloyd is beaten in the foot race but Anais Grando, under pressure, concedes the turnover.

Scotland scrum.

Oooh France thought they were away there, Teani Feleu getting her legs pumping on the wing.

The referee has to repeatedly blow her whistle to bring play to a halt. Charlotte Escudero is penalised for side entry.

Scotland will have a line-out in a good position.

France captain Manae Feleu received a yellow card following that score for Scotland.

Every successful line-out throw from Elis Martin is cheered heartily by the Edinburgh crowd.

Meryl Smith puts in a big box kick and Carla Arbez makes a mess of catching it over her shoulder.

Another line-out for Scotland, this one deep in French territory.
