England start Six Nations with a thrashing of WalesAFP, LONDONJamie George was proud of England’s dynamic start to the Six Nations after they thrashed Wales 48-7 at Twickenham, England, on Saturday ahead of next week’s trip to Edinburgh. England, without a Six Nations title since 2020, are to face a Scotland side smarting from an 18-15 opening loss to Italy in Rome. England’s Henry Arundell, right, goes to score a try against Wales in London on Saturday. Wales captain Dewi Lake, one of four Welsh players sent to the sin-bin, made no attempt to sugar-coat his side’s 12th straight Six Nations defeat. Wales on Sunday host a France side fresh from an impressive 36-14 win over Ireland, with thousands of tickets still unsold for the Cardiff clash.
