"We thought if we put our best stuff out there, the result would take care of itself. I think the scoreline flattered us. In the second half, I thought Wales were a lot better and they played the game they wanted to play. We were very good in the first half, and it meant the result was taken care of with half an hour to play."
"I don't think we've won at Murrayfield since 2020, they're a bit of a bogey team,' Earl said of facing Scotland. 'Last year against Scotland it came down to last kick of the game, but I feel like we've improved since then, but they're a good team and will be firing if they lost today. I'm looking forward to it."
England defeated Wales 47-8 at Twickenham, with Henry Arundell scoring a first-half hat-trick and Ben Earl also crossing before halftime. Tom Roebuck and Tommy Freeman added second-half tries, and Wales conceded a penalty try. A commanding first-half performance effectively decided the match with around 30 minutes remaining. The victory extended England's unbeaten run since the opening loss to Ireland and marked their longest winning streak since 2015-2017. England travel to Edinburgh to face Scotland next after Scotland suffered a shock 18-15 defeat to Italy. Arundell recorded his second England hat-trick, contributing to a strong start to the campaign.
