England vs Italy Six Nations hottest news


England had a great start to their Six Nations campaign at the Millennium arena last week when beating Wales, while Martin Johnson has been at pains to warn against satisfaction at Twickenham on Saturday.

By rights, this should be a contented match for England after their win in Cardiff, although Italy have got a strong forward pack and ran Ireland tremendously close in Rome last weekend before narrowly losing.

Johnson said: “If Italy come and play their best game and they are tough and their defence is strong, we will be in a game into the last quarter like we were last week. “I have no doubts about that. They don’t grant a lot of points, they are difficult at the breakdown. We are under no illusions.”
