Ireland v Wales: The Preview  from Rugby World

Corner stop: Mike Phillips scores against Ireland in Wales' World Cup quarter-final win By Sarah Mockford, Rugby World Features Editor IT?S A replay of the World Cup quarter-final between Ireland and Wales in Dublin on Sunday afternoon ? and both sides have points to prove. Having lost twice to the Welsh last year ? 22-10 in that game in Wellington and 19-13 in the Six Nations, a controversial Mike Phillips try proving the difference in Cardiff ? Ireland are eager to get back to winning ways and start their championship campaign with a bang. Wales will want to show that their memorable RWC run was no fluke and that they are contenders for the Six Nations title. So let?s take a look at the game?s key battle grounds? Super six: Ryan Jones Back row As in New Zealand, the contest between the back rows will be crucial. Ryan Jones comes in for the injured Dan Lydiate and given his form for the Ospreys in recent weeks he?s a more than adequate replacement. H ...

Scotland 6-13 England  from Rugby World

Chris Robshaw holds up the Calcutta Cup By Bea Asprey, Rugby World Writer In a nutshell ENGLAND’S RBS 6 Nations title defence is still on track as Saturday saw them beat Scotland 6-13 at Murrayfield. Fly-half Charlie Hodgson scored the visitors’ only try 29 seconds into the second half, after he chased down Dan Parks’s kick, while his Saracens team-mate and Test debutant Owen Farrell kicked the conversion and two further penalties. Scotland’s Dan Parks successfully kicked two penalties, but their try drought continues. Key moment While Scotland had England on the ropes in the first half, Hodgson’s try early in the second saw the momentum swing in the visitors’ favour, and Scotland were unable to claw their way back. Despite significant pressure throughout the match, England’s defence held firm and Scotland failed to exploit any of their chances, notably that of Richie Gray, when Ben Foden put in a fine cover tackle ...

France 30-12 Italy  from Rugby World

First up: Aurelien Rougerie scores the first of France's four tries against Italy By Owain Jones, Rugby World Editor In a nutshell France gained revenge over Italy after last year?s humbling 22-21 defeat in Rome, romping to a four-try, 30-12 win. The scoreline didn?t reflect a game in which the Azzurri, under new coach Jacques Brunel, had plenty of possession, and at least tried to play with some ambition. Sadly they didn?t have the attacking arsenal to make their territorial advantage count and were undone by a more incisive French backline. Aurelien Rougerie and Julien Malzieu ran in from distance in the first-half and Vincent Clerc and debutant Wesley Fofana crossed the whitewash after the break giving Philippe Saint-Andre?s the perfect start to his coaching career with Les Bleus. Key moment Although Italy had enjoyed more territory and possession in the first-half, their resolve was broken by Julien Malzieu in the 35 th minute. Taking the ball ...

Ireland 21-23 Wales  from Rugby World

Second's up: Jonathan Davies crosses for his second try in Wales' win over Ireland in Dublin By Sarah Mockford, Rugby World Features Editor In a nutshell Undoubtedly the game of the Six Nations to date ? though that doesn’t do this match justice after what Scotland and England offered up yesterday! A fiercely contested game with both Ireland and Wales showing huge intent to play rugby, keeping ball in hand and working the phases. The lead changed hands six times but it was Wales who demonstrated the classier attacking moves, Rhys Priestland bringing his back-line onto the ball at pace and mixing up the point of attack as his team ran in three tries. The two Irish tries came from patient phase play that stretched the Welsh defence and allowed Ireland to find space out wide. Bradley Davies was sin-binned for a dangerous tip tackle on Donnacha Ryan and is likely to be cited, but it was a similar offence by Stephen Ferris that gave Leigh Halfpenny the chance t ...

New boy: Saracens centre Owen Farrell, 20, makes his much-anticipated England debut on Saturday SARACENS CENTRES Owen Farrell and Brad Barritt will make their Test debuts in England’s midfield against Scotland in the Calcutta Cup on Saturday evening. It’s the first time England have picked an uncapped centre pairing since Ben Johnston and Geoff Appleford teamed up in 2002 against Argentina. Farrell and Barritt will form an all-Saracens 10-12-13 combination along with Charlie Hodgson for England’s opening RBS 6 Nations fixture while Phil Dowson is the third uncapped player in the starting XV, winning his first cap at No 8 with captain Chris Robshaw at openside and Tom Croft at blindside. Another Saracen, David Strettle, steps into Mark Cueto’s boots in the back three, which also features Ben Foden and Chris Ashton, while Mouritz Botha teams up with Tom Palmer in the second row. There are a further five uncapped players on the bench in Wasps hooker ...

Sailosi Tagicakibau will return for London Irish London Irish has made five changes to its side for tomorrow?s LV= cup round four clash with Gloucester at Madejski Stadium (kick-off 3pm). Adam Thompstone and Sailosi Tagicakibau come onto the wings with Shontayne Hape and Jonathan Spratt forming the centre partnership. Matt Garvey will start at blindside flanker after returning to the club from England Saxons duty. London Irish head coach Toby Booth said: ?This time of year is always difficult with players away on international duty. That has been exacerbated by the injury list we currently have. However, last weekend we showed a lot of attacking intent which we aim to replicate tomorrow whilst being more clinical in the final third.? London Irish Starting XV: 15. Tom Homer 14. Adam Thompstone 13. Jonathan Spratt 12. Shontayne Hape 11. Sailosi Tagicakibau 10. Dan Bowden 9. Darren Allinson 1. Clarke Dermody (Captain) 2. Brian Blaney 3. Paulica Ion 4. Nick Kenne ...

England Sevens book Wellington quarter-final place  from Rugby World

Mat Turner is tackled by Jerome Vogel of the Cook Islands England will face Tonga in the quarter finals of the Hertz Sevens in Wellington after cruising through today?s pool stages. They beat the USA 29-0 and the Cook Islands 27-12 before resting players in the final game and suffering a 14-10 reverse against South Africa. The played three, won two record means the Blitzbokke will face HSBC Sevens World Series leaders Fiji while England take on the Tongans at 03:55GMT tomorrow. The winners are likely to meet hosts New Zealand in the semi finals. Former Gloucester wing Dan Norton took his try tally to 16 for the season with four more scores in his two outings and is third in the overall table behind teammate Mat Turner (17) and New Zealand?s Frank Halai (20). And head coach Ben Ryan?s decision to rest his leading players for the final game means England will be fresh going into tomorrow?s knock-out stages. ?We played okay against the Cook Islands and really well against ...

Priestland and Roberts fit for Ireland game  from Rugby World

Back at the races: Rhys Priestland and Jamie Roberts are fit for Wales' game against Ireland RHYS PRIESTLAND and Jamie Roberts have been selected in the Wales team to play Ireland in their opening RBS 6 Nations game on Sunday. Fly-half Priestland and centre Roberts, who both impressed for Wales at the World Cup, had been struggling with knee injuries but have recovered in time to earn starting berths. Cardiff Blues wing Alex Cuthbert replaces Shane Williams in Wales’ back three, although it is George North who will wear the famous No 11 shirt with Leigh Halfpenny retained at full-back. New prop: Saracens' Rhys Gill comes in for Gethin Jenkins Rhys Gill comes into the front row in place of injured prop Gethin Jenkins. The Saracens loosehead will win his second cap in Dublin and will have a big task to get the better of Ireland’s Mike Ross at scrum time, but he does have experienced heads Adam Jones and Huw Bennett, who will win his 50th cap, alon ...

Lancaster’s England in for a rocky ride  from Rugby World

Hooker Ross Ford will captain Scotland for the first time on Saturday By Bea Asprey, Rugby World Writer Stuart Lancaster’s fresh-faced England side will attempt to beat Scotland at Murrayfield for the first time since 2004 on Saturday, but although the visitors beat their hosts twice in 2011, they will have their work cut out for them if they are to overcome this fired up Scottish side. The Scots have a horrible habit of losing games in their dying minutes, but here are the reasons why I pick them as favourites to come out on top on the opening weekend of the RBS 6 Nations. Chris Robshaw England’s inexperience England have a combined total of just 233 caps in their starting lineup, and Lancaster has picked three Test debutants – the midfield partnership of  Saracens Brad Barritt and Owen Farrell, and Northampton Saint Phil Dowson who will fill the No 8 jersey – and there are also five newcomers on the bench. Furthermore, new Englan ...
