SCOTLAND captain Rachel Malcolm is excited about the “new era” under Sione Fukofuka as they prepare for their Women’s Six Nations opener against Wales.

The new head coach has handed Glasgow back-row forward Emily Coubrough a debut in his starting line-up for the Principality Stadium clash, while Shona Campbell and Meryl Smith are making long-awaited international comebacks.

The uncapped Demi Swann, Holland Bogan and Rianna Darroch will also be on the bench in Cardiff.
