England see off Wales to make it 2 out of 2, Ireland get their first win and Scotland lose to France

It has been a great start to this years Six Nations with England currently top, they have Ireland breathing down their neck as they have also won both games.

England certainly weren't pretty against France, but still managed to get the win 19-16 at Twickenham to kick off their campaign, however they say winning when you don't play well is a sign of a good team. Wales didn't crack under pressure when playing Italy, they got a comfortable 33-7 win away at Italy. Scotland provided the shock of the round, they beat Ireland in a remarkable performance 27-22 to get off to a winning start.

Italy were once again thrashed, this time they lost 63-10 against Ireland, who were looking to bounce back after their opening game loss to Scotland. Scotland put up a brave performance, however they lost out to France in a 22-16 at the Stade de France, there was some impressive kicking from the French throughout. In the big one, it was the late late show after England saw off Wales 21 - 16 in Cardiff. It was Daly who scored a try on the 76 minute to win the game for England in a hotly contested game.
