    Welsh rugby is still in crisis...spanked 48-7 in their opening Six Nations match against England at Twickenham


    England scored seven tries to one...including a first half hat-trick to winger Henry Arundell.

    Player of the match George Ford told Sky Sport they should've cracked the 50-point mark...but he's relatively happy.



    In the morning's other match Italy downed Scotland 18-15 in Rome.
