It starts today

England a daunting test for the new Wales - Rugby Union News - Telegraph
"The edge is still there," Ashton said yesterday. "The edge is still there because it's England-Wales, one of the biggest of the Six Nations fixtures."


The first England-Wales game Ashton watched, on a black and white television set, was the 1963 game in Cardiff. England won that day. It was to be 28 years before they managed it again.

England might be vulnerable, but Wales will have to deliver an exceptional performance if they are to end their own barren spell.
