Wales – and the rest of the world – have been attempting to close the gap on England for years, and while the scoreline may be similar, Lynn believes they are making strides.
“We will definitely be moving that goalpost for us and we could catch them,” he said.
“I couldn’t give you an answer [on how long]. It’s just making sure we focus on us and control what we can.
“That’s the big thing for me, we’ve got individuals, somebody like Freya Bell coming off the bench today who’s looking strong, Jenna De Vera getting her second start, Jorja Aiono, Seren Lockwood – the adaptability she’s showing going onto the wing and playing in front of 28,000 people.
“This experience is just going to help our youngsters and the senior players have been outstanding.”
Wales now have two weeks to reflect before heading to Ireland for the penulatimate round, but Lynn is facing a mini injury crisis with Catherine Richards the latest casualty.
Wales were without captain Kate Williams, Hannah Dallavalle and Carys Cox for the England game, while Lisa Neumann has already been ruled out of the rest of the championship.
