Meg Jones, captain of the Red Roses, has advocated for the introduction of fertility support programs within women’s rugby. During a recent appearance on the 'Good, the Scaz and the Rugby' podcast, Jones highlighted the importance of addressing fertility concerns for professional female athletes, specifically pointing to egg freezing as a necessary resource.

Jones’s comments were prompted by recent developments in women’s football, where organizations such as the Spanish football federation and Chelsea FC have begun offering financial assistance for fertility treatments. Jones praised these initiatives as "class" and suggested that the rugby community should follow suit. She noted that this is a topic that the Red Roses should "jump on too," emphasizing the need for the sport to evolve in its support for players' long-term health and family planning.

While the discussion is gaining momentum in the sporting world, there is currently no formal policy or commitment from rugby governing bodies to mirror the programs seen in football. Jones’s public endorsement serves as a significant push to bring the conversation to the forefront of rugby administration, though the practicalities of funding and implementation remain subjects for future debate.
