England delivered a commanding performance to launch their Six Nations campaign, overwhelming Wales 48–7 with a relentless display of attacking precision and defensive intensity at Twickenham.
Henry Arundell starred with a first-half hat-trick that effectively decided the contest before halftime, while England continued to add points through the second half despite a brief Welsh response try.
Further scores and strong bench impact kept England firmly in control, extending their winning streak and reinforcing growing belief they can challenge for their first title since 2020. In contrast, Wales’ struggles continued amid wider uncertainty around their domestic game, with a daunting clash against defending champions France looming next, while England now prepare for a tougher test against Scotland.
