England, last year's Grand Slam champions, had struggled early on against a physical Scotland side in front of a buoyant home crowd. Submitting...No.8 Ollie Leatherbarrow put the Scots into the lead before Henry Arundell’s moment of magic earned a score for England. Leatherbarrow went over for Scotland's second score but England narrowed the gap to two points thanks to a try from captain Toby Knight. Ollie Melville scored in the corner to extend the Scottish lead to seven points shortly after the restart, but Alan Dickens' England came back firing. The Saints youngsters then came to the fore as Hendy’s sensational break off the restart set up Grayson for England’s fifth score.
