Sexton leads criticism of ‘out of touch’ international overhaul

World Rugby's proposed changed to the international calendar have not gone down well with top players.

Maro Itoje may return quicker than expected for England after Courtney Lawes was ruled out of the rest of the Six Nations.

England's defeat to Wales in the Six Nations was decided by "small margins" and their ill-discipline proved costly, says Eddie Jones.

Wales came from 10-3 down at half-time to claim a record 12th consecutive victory and go top of the Six Nations table.

Warren Gatland says it will be a "big challenge" for Kyle Sinckler to avoid getting in hot water at the Principality Stadium.

Eddie Jones says only Manu Tuilagi can decide his future amid reports he is set for a big-money move to the Top 14.

The third round of fixtures in the 2019 Six Nations sees Wales host England, Scotland visit France, and Ireland head to Italy.

Eddie Jones described Warren Gatland's team as "the greatest Welsh side ever", but the Wales coach does not agree.

Gareth Anscombe gets the nod at number 10 in a much-changed Wales side for a huge encounter with England.

Mako Vunipola and Chris Ashton are replaced by Ben Moon and Jack Nowell in England's starting line-up to take on Wales.

After playing his whole career in rugby union, Luther Burrell will line up for rugby league side Warrington Wolves later this year.

England's Steve Borthwick has confirmed that Maro Itoje will be absent again when they travel to Wales on Saturday.

Wales are hopeful that Leigh Halfpenny and Dan Biggar will recover in time to face England in the Six Nations on Saturday.

A minor calf strain means Chris Ashton will miss England's trip to face Wales in the Six Nations.

Wales were dealt a blow on Friday as Leigh Halfpenny's expected comeback for the Scarlets did not come to fruition.

Eddie Jones sought to dismiss Wales' strong record in Cardiff ahead of England's Six Nations visit, but Neil Jenkins is not worried.
