How to follow England's Six Nations campaign

As many of you saw on Saturday, England made a great start to this season's Six Nations with a 60-0 romp over Scotland - who, it is worth remembering, are "officially" the sixth best side in the world (Wales would probably argue with that, but they were not at the World Cup).

However, finding any news in the press about the women's six nations is about as easy as scoring a try against Welwyn U17s - even if the results are published they are often buried away in such small print that an electronic microscope if required! So the following web-based resources are particilarly useful.
  • Biogs etc. about the England squad appear on the RFUW website
  • Scores and results appear on the "Official RBS Nations Website". This also includes the previous three campaigns, and the main thing to note is that Italy did much better against France than I think anyone would have predicted.
  • England's matches can be watched - live - online at www.247.tv, except for this Saturday's game against Italy which will be on BBC Interactive.
