Italy with the first try at Twickenham.
Super start from Italy!
Intriguing news here for Ireland...
England's pack is 926kg. Is that the heaviest pack they've ever put on the field?
All square after 20mins. This could be interesting.
Definitely seemed like there could have been a knock-on for England's try too.

Can't tell yet if this is going to be a hammering or not 
Italy will need to somehow maintain this and sneak some more scores too.
Italy will need to somehow maintain this and sneak some more scores too.May and Watson are incredible athletes, their first steps are devastating. If only their teammates could make simple passes.
Some super breaks, but overall England look very poor again.
That is a ridiculous try. Amazing stuff.
Oh that's a crazy decision for allowing that breakaway try. Ball was away and Farrell put in a cheap dig.
I'd say both sides will feel a bit aggrieved with the ref's performance in that match, and Italy really needed absolutely everything to go their way to have a chance. Awful injury for England too puts a huge dampener on it.
Hoping for a Scotland win in the second game!

Scotland looking much the better team. Just don't get anyone sent off, lads.
Better late than never I suppose.
Could you and I apply for some sort of squad selection committee? Think we'd do a better job
So far so good especially after a pretty indisciplined start when we gave away some silly penalties. Credit to the them though, we took control of the game thereafter and look very organised.
Just need to cut out some of those silly errors. Chance is there for us to make it two wins out of two.

What should be our starting halfbacks only called into the squad as injury cover. If you didn't laugh, you'd cry.
Yeah, a few will be breathing a sigh of relief. Couple of decent signings for next year though. Var Der Merwe looks class.
Is this another red??
For feck sake.Unbelievable. Wales are going to win two weeks in a row despite being the worse team because of idiotic behaviour of their opponents.
Good to see they are clamping down on flying into the ruck.
That's been going on for years and should always have been a penalty because the player comes straight in of his feet.
It's only know they penalise it and it's only because their is head contact.
Oh it's dead right. I just cannot believe that this has happened two weeks in a row. So brainless.
Who was it who said Scotland were going to Scotland this week?
Looks like they've thrown this one away.

It's due to Wales contesting legally in rucks.
Finn loves a lick
Some prime wumming here by Wales with these subs.
"...........aaaaactually we have another too".

The Scottish no.1s calf to bicep ratio is whack
Rees-Zammit what a star
Wales are so incredibly lucky to be winning this game.
Thought Hogg was going all the way then.
I've never understood kicking with 3 minutes to go. That went from Scotland attacking in the Wales half to 10 metres from the Scotland line due to one kick from Scotland.
Anyone else surprised by the lack of physicality from Wales? England had a poor game last week but they were clearly superior athletically, Scotland are good technically and play with a lot intelligence but they are still lightweights.
Probably sealed it with that touch finder.
Scotland did everything they could not to win that match.
Really? I think Scotland hit hard, they seem to always be able to get over the gainline. They may need some smarts especially in the opponents 22 but I certainly wouldn't call them lightweights.
As soon as Zander got sent off, I just knew it was going to go in Wales’ favour.
OMG, that was an absolute fecking idiotic decision by Price. WTF was he thinking? I literally gave my Mrs a fright when I screamed at the top of my voice towards my tv at him
