Canada's Tyson Beukeboom to become Canada's most-capped rugby player at World Cup
Tyson Beukeboom, a 34-year-old lock forward, will set a new Canadian rugby record with her 81st cap, surpassing Aaron Carpenter's previous record of 80 caps.
- On Saturday, Tyson Beukeboom will become Canada’s most-capped rugby player, earning her 81st cap and surpassing Aaron Carpenter’s 80-cap record at the Rugby World Cup.
- Rouet's bench plan features a 6-2 bench split to physically dominate opponents, with Brittany Kassil able to reach her 50th cap coming off the bench Saturday.
- Saturday's Pool B clash at Sandy Park will decide top spot, with Canada holding a 3-1-0 World Cup edge and securing a quarter-final against Pool A’s runners-up with a win.
- Beukeboom's milestone follows strong team form, as she has already overtaken 2014 Women's Rugby World Cup finalist Magali Harvey on Canada's appearance list.
- Despite confidence, Kévin Rouet said the team is happy with its first two games but still has room for improvement before the quarter-finals, warning Scotland will present a new challenge this week.
