England face brutal Six Nations schedule

There is little room for error for England.
Borthwick's men finished fifth in the 2026 championship, losing four of their five matches.
That included a historic first defeat to Italy and a dramatic 48-46 loss to France in Paris.
Now England must begin their 2027 campaign against Ireland and France.
They then host Italy before travelling to Cardiff for a huge clash with Wales.
Their final match comes against Scotland, with the Calcutta Cup up for grabs at Twickenham.
England will hope to build momentum ahead of the 2027 Rugby World Cup in Australia.

England face France on Valentine's Day, while Wales welcome England to Cardiff on 6 March.
Scotland host Ireland under the Friday night lights at Murrayfield.
And the tournament could finish with a title decider when Ireland host France in Dublin.
